Ravnsbjerg Church (Danish: Ravnsbjergkirken), is a modern church, which was built on the hill of Ravnsbjerg in Viby J. The church was built by renowned Danish architect Christian Frederik Møller and his architectural firm C. F. Møller Architects as part of the new development of Aarhus in 1970, resulting in the suburbs being moved out of the old city areas. The church is built using red and brown colored bricks, and the decorations made of wood and granite in the church were created by the sculptor Erik Heide.
