Mount Zion is a historic Baptist church located at Charlottesville, Virginia.

The church began with a petition in 1864 to separate from the segregated white Baptist church, and the congregation was officially organized in 1867.

In 1884, they finished the current, brick church that still stands today. The church was designed by George Wallace Spooner, who also helped rebuild the Rotunda at the University of Virginia.
