Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church in Hartland, Wisconsin was built in 1910 to serve the German-speaking Lutheran congregation. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]

It was deemed architecturally significant "as a good local example of the Gothic Revival style", and was built by members of the congregation. A 1951 addition to the rear does not detract from the building's architectural integrity.[2]

It started in the church building across the street in the 1860s. Later after a doctrinal dispute, the church split, half of it moving across town and the other half moving across the street and building the current facility. The old building was sold to another church body. The current pastor is the Reverend Steven Ristow.
