Zion Baptist Church in Collinsville, Mississippi is a Carpenter Gothic church built in 1910-11. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 2002.

According to its NRHP nomination, it was deemed signicant "because of the quality of its architectural detail as a rural, vernacular church built during the early 1900s, and its unusually high degree of integrity."

The church building replaced a previous building on the site.

Its 6 acres (2.4 ha) property includes a cemetery with graves of immigrants from about 1860 on, including from England, Scotland, and Ireland. An African-American cemetery also associated with the church is outside the listed property, accessed through a fence.
