St. Ladislaus Roman Catholic Church was a historic church at 2908 Wood Avenue in Lorain, Ohio.[2]

It was built in 1904 and added to the National Register in 1982. The church was closed in 2010 along with other local churches as part of a "reconfiguration" by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Cleveland.[3][4] Statues from the church were restored and later added to the Museum of Divine Statues in Lakewood, Ohio in April 2011.[4]
