The Church of the Holy Spirit (Swedish: Helgeandskyrkan) is a church located in the district of Klostergården, on the south-west side of Lund in Skåne, Sweden. It was opened in 1968 as a district church in the Diocese of Lund, but became the main church of the parish of Helgeand after it was formed in 1991.

The functionalistic church has thick brick walls, a campanile and a pulpit on the exterior designed for outdoor services. It has 23 church bells, of which twenty form a chime of bells and three are located in the campanile.

The architect behind the church was Sten Samuelson (1926-2002).[1][2]
