Christ Church, officially The Parish of Christ Church, Hyde Park is a historic church building built in 1893 at 1220 River Road in Hyde Park, Massachusetts, a neighborhood of Boston. It is a parish of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts.

Christ Church was the second church building designed by Ralph Adams Cram (after the nearby All Saints' Church, Ashmont), who went on to design many church buildings, notably the Cathedral of Saint John the Divine, New York City.[2] The church was built in 1893 and added to the National Historic Register in 1986.
