St Michael and All Angels' Church, Haworth, Parish church in Haworth, England.

St Michael and All Angels' Church is a stone building with a medieval tower and Westmorland slate roof standing at the top of Haworth's main street. The structure was built between 1879 and 1881 to replace an earlier church that had occupied the same location.

The present church replaced an older building in 1879, where Patrick Brontë served as the parish priest from 1820 to 1861. The new structure was built during a time of major changes in Yorkshire's industrial textile region.

The chapel inside bears the Brontë name, and its original fittings still reflect the literary family's long connection to this parish community. The building holds memories of when Patrick Brontë served here and his children grew up in this place.

The building opens regularly for visitors who wish to explore both the interior and the surrounding graveyard. The location sits at the top of town and is easy to reach on foot.

The graveyard holds a large number of burials that reflect the high death rates during Yorkshire's industrial boom in the 1800s. This dense landscape of tombs tells the story of the harsh living conditions people faced back then.
