St. Justus, auch Justuskirche, ist eine römisch-katholische Kirche in Flums im Schweizer Kanton St. Gallen.

Sie gilt als bedeutendes Baudenkmal im Sarganserland. Ein erster Kirchenbau lässt sich um das Jahr 800 datieren und war über Jahrhunderte eine Mutter- und Taufkirche. 1036 wurden die Reliquien des Heiligen Justus niedergelegt. Die Kirche ist von einem alten Friedhof umgeben.

Die Kirche wurde lange verwaltet von der ortsansässigen Familie Tschudi, Freiherren von Flums und Burg Gräpplang. Ludwig Tschudi von Gräpplang (der Jüngere) wurde 1519 in Jerusalem zum Ritter des Heiligen Grabes geschlagen.
