Ignaberga nya kyrka is a red-brick church at Ignaberga in Skåne, built in the late 19th century to replace an older medieval church that had become too small for the growing congregation.



The church was constructed between 1885 and 1887, designed by the architect Carl (C. O.) Möller. Sources differ slightly on the precise architectural style, describing it variously as neo-Gothic or neo-Romanesque, but both agree on the striking red-brick construction, though the architect is said to have originally favoured yellow brick before the final choice was made.

Inside, the church retains much of its original character, with a spacious, open long nave beneath an exposed timber roof structure and ridge. The original windows survive, giving the interior an authentic late-19th-century appearance.

The altarpiece is an oil painting on canvas depicting Christ's appearance to Mary Magdalene on Easter morning. The two sources attribute the work to different artists — one names Professor Ch. E. Winge, the other Professor Mårten Eskil Winge — likely referring to the same painter, though this is not certain from the material available.

The pews are original to the church and unusually arranged as open bench seating with cast-iron end panels, a detail that gives the nave a distinctive Victorian-era institutional character still visible today.

The organ dates from the same period as the church and was built by Rasmus Nilsson of Malmö, contributing to the building's largely unaltered late-19th-century interior.
