Zoar Moravian Church (The Zoar Church) is a historic church in Laketown Township, Minnesota, United States, near the city of Waconia, Minnesota. It was built in 1863 by a congregation of immigrants from Hopedale, Pennsylvania. It is built in a Greek Revival style, typical of other early public buildings in Minnesota. The steeple was moved forward in 1908 to create a bell tower. The congregation disbanded in the 1940s, but the church is maintained and used by the Waconia Moravian Church.
The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
