Leiranger Church (Norwegian: Leiranger kirke) is a parish church in the municipality of Steigen in Nordland county, Norway. It is located in the village of Leines. The church is part of the Leiranger parish in the Salten deanery in the Diocese of Sør-Hålogaland. The yellow wooden church was built in 1911 to replace the old church (from 1734) that burned down. The present building seats about 500 people.
