Stone Mills Union Church is a historic church at Stone Mills in Jefferson County, New York. It was built in 1837.

The church is a long, three bay, rectangular structure built of carefully dressed walls of gray limestone. It is covered by a gable roof and the front elevation features a two-story pedimented pavilion two bays in width. Atop the pavilion is a simple belfry covered by a low pyramidal roof. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]

Since 1968 it has served as headquarters for the Stone Mill Museum of the Northern New York Agricultural Historical Society.[2] The museum includes a sawmill, granary, school house, display buildings and farm machinery.
