Zion's German Lutheran Church (Zion's Lutheran Church) is a historic church at 510 Pine Street in Trinidad, Colorado.

It was built in 1890 and was added to the National Register in 2006.^[1]

It is 26 by 61 feet (7.9 m × 18.6 m) in plan. It is described in its NRHP nomination as:

a distinctive red brick building with stone trim and a steeply-pitched, wood shingle roof. The building has decorative gabled trim, pointed-arch windows, buttressing, and a central tower/narthex with an elaborate roof and a round arched entry below a large rose window. Stylistically, the eclectic composition almost defies classification. Predominantly Victorian Gothic, the church also possesses elements of other styles from the Late Victorian era, including Romanesque Revival, the Stick Style, and Queen Anne with some Germanic influences.^[2]
