St Ailbe's Church is a Catholic church in Emly County Tipperary, Ireland, dedicated to Ailbe of Emly (d. 529). Built in the 1880s, it replaced an 1809 church. The sandstone font at the entrance is believed to be medieval, and the nearby graveyard features St Ailbe's Cross, reputedly the saint's tombstone.
