The Corpus Christi Church (Belarusian: Касцёл Божага Цела, Lithuanian: Nesvyžiaus Dievo Kūno bažnyčia, Polish: Kościół Bożego Ciała) in Nyasvizh (Nesvizh), Belarus, is an early Jesuit church, and one of the oldest Baroque structures outside Italy, influencing the later architecture of Poland, Belarus and Lithuania. Commissioned by Prince Nicholas Radziwill and constructed between 1587 and 1593 by Gian Maria Bernardoni during the times of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, it contains tombs of powerful Radziwiłł family members.

The church is included into the UNESCO World Heritage list.
