South Danbury Christian Church is a historic church on US 4 in Danbury, New Hampshire. The wood frame building was constructed in 1867 by the local congregational society, and has undergone relatively little exterior modification since. It has limited ornamentation, and is a good example of a rural vernacular 19th century church building. The only exterior changes of note are the replacement of the roof (1974), and the addition of electrict lighting and a handrail. Interior changes were made around the turn of the 20th century, most of which are not detailed in church records.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
