The Elbe Evangelical Lutheran Church is a small church in Elbe, Washington. The land and lumber to build the church were donated by German immigrants Henry and Clara Lutken. The main building of the church is 24 feet by 18 feet, but the steeple rises 55 feet, and is topped with an iron cross. The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.

The church was listed by Ripley's Believe It or Not! as the world's smallest functional church.
