St. Bernard Church and Cemetery is a historic Roman Catholic church and cemetery near Camden, Lewis County, West Virginia. It was built in 1909, and is a rectangular gable-roofed, one-story frame structure in the Gothic Revival style. It features a two-story entrance bell tower. The property includes the church cemetery; it includes the grave of Father Thomas Aquinas Quirk (1845-1937). Most of the settlers in the region, including the congregants of the church, were of Irish descent.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
