St. Alexander's Church (Polish: kościół św. Aleksandra) is a Roman Catholic church located on Triple Cross Square in central Warsaw, Poland. It is near the south end of New World Street (Nowy Świat), the Royal Route, and Warsaw's Old Town. The church is one of Warsaw's most recognizable landmarks.

St. Alexander's Church was designed in neoclassical style by renowned Polish architect Chrystian Piotr Aigner and was built in 1818–1825. In the late 19th century, St. Alexander's was remodeled into a larger, more grandiose Neo-Renaissance church with two side towers and a higher, ornate dome. It was destroyed in World War II and reconstructed in its initial, simpler form in 1949-52.
