Arlöv Church (Swedish: Arlövs kyrka) is a church in Arlöv, Burlöv Municipality in the Swedish province Skåne. The Neo-Gothic church was built in 1900 to house a growing congregation.
The church was built in 1900 and was intended to replace Burlöv Old Church, a nearby medieval church which had become to small for the growing congregation. Discussions about building a new church had been initiated already in 1870. When it was inaugurated in 1900, its Neo-Gothic style was already falling out of fashion.[1][2]
