St. John the Baptist Church (Angoon, Alaska)

The St. John the Baptist Church is a historic Russian Orthodox Church in Angoon, Alaska, United States. It is currently in the Diocese of Alaska of the Orthodox Church in America

This modest wood-frame village church was built 1928–1929, after a fire destroyed the previous church of the parish, at Killisnoo, in 1927. The main chamber is about long and wide, although it was originally built to a shorter length. Its gabled roof is topped by a square cupola, which is topped by an Orthodox cross. A bell tower rises from the west end above the vestibule.

The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
