The Burr Oak United Church is a church at the northeast corner of Pennsylvania and Washington Streets in Burr Oak, Kansas. It was built in 1912 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1] It was a United Methodist Church until June 20, 2023, but left the denomination in anticipating of combining with other community churches.

It is a two-story, red brick and limestone structure with a hipped roof. It was deemed notable as "a late Victorian example of Richardson[ian] Romanesque architecture in a small Kansas town."[2]
