Diamond Hill Baptist Church is a historic African-American Baptist church located at Lynchburg, Virginia. It was built in 1886, and is a three-story, "L"-shaped, brick church building in the Late Gothic Revival style. It has brick buttresses capped with limestone, Gothic pointed arched windows, a three-story entrance tower with steeple, and a jerkinhead roof. From 1958 to 1963 the pastor was Virgil Wood, the pastor most associated with the Civil Rights movement in Lynchburg.

Individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011, it is located in the Diamond Hill Historic District.
