Forestville Baptist Church is a historic Baptist church located at Wake Forest in Wake County, North Carolina, a satellite town of the state capital Raleigh. Constructed in 1860, the church building is a combination of Greek Revival and Italianate style architecture. The building may be attributed to Jacob W. Holt, or his brother, Thomas J. Holt, architect with the Raleigh and Gaston Railroad.[2]

In October 1984, Forestville Baptist Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]
