St Mary's church in the village of Crich, Derbyshire, is a Grade I listed building dating from 1135. Further building occurred in the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries, with a vestry added in the 20th century. For a while it was known as St Michael's; Crich Cross has an image of St. Michael in its roundel at the top.

The church was hit by lightning on 5 February 1945, which caused a fire to start. It was extinguished by local volunteers armed with stirrup pumps.

The church is in a joint parish with All Saints, South Wingfield. A large churchyard extends north-east from the church.
