Our Lady of the Angels Parish Church, commonly known as Atimonan Church, is a Roman Catholic church located in Atimonan, Quezon, Philippines.

The first church was destroyed by the Dutch invaders in 1640.[1] The present church was completed in 1700, but was seriously damaged by an earthquake in 1937.[2] The National Historical Commission of the Philippines declared the church as a national historical landmark in 1939.[3]
