The Unitarian Society was an historic church building located at 309 North Main Street in Fall River, Massachusetts.
The church was built in 1835 and added to the National Historic Register in 1982. The church was originally built at the corner of Second and Borden streets. In 1861, it was dismantled and rebuilt on North Main Street.
The church was destroyed by fire on September 2, 1983. It was the oldest church in the city at the time. A new church was later built on the same location. Surviving the fire was a Paul Revere bell, one ornate stained glass window, two plaques, a pulpit, and the baptismal font.
