The Aurland United Norwegian Lutheran Church is a church located southeast of Frederick, South Dakota, built in 1903–1905. It is no longer actively used for services. The church has not been altered significantly since its construction. In 1982, it was listed in the National Register of Historic Places.[2][3]

The congregation was organized in 1885. The church was patterned after the home church of immigrants from Aurland, Sogn, Norway.[4]
