Henning Church (Norwegian: Henning kirke) is a parish church in the municipality of Steinkjer in Nord-Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located in the village of Vekre. The church is part of the Henning parish in the Nord-Innherad deanery in the Diocese of Nidaros.

The white wooden church was constructed in 1872 and designed by Rasmus M. Overrein. It was built on a site that has been the location of several churches since (at least) the 13th century. The first record of the existence of the church dates back to 1289 when it was called Bagabu church, the old name for the Henning area.[1]
