Ranheim Church (Norwegian: Ranheim kirke) is a parish church in the municipality of Trondheim in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Ranheim, east of the city of Trondheim. The church is part of the Ranheim parish in the Strinda deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros.
The first church in Ranheim was built in 1898, but that one burned down in 1932 after being hit by lightning. A new church was built in 1933 that was consecrated on 20 April 1933 by the Bishop Johan Nicolai Støren. The new church sits about 100 metres (330 ft) northeast of the site of the old church.
