The Sint-Lambertuskerk is a church in the village Kerk-Avezaath in the Dutch province of Gelderland. The church is located on the Daver, centrally on the south side of the village. It is a single-aisled aisleless church with a late Gothic choir and a neo-Gothic nave, which was inaugurated in its present form in 1861. The history of the church building goes back to the year 1007. The church building is a national monument and has been managed and supported by the Oude Gelderse Kerken Foundation since 1999.

In the 17th century a school was established under the tower, the first predecessor of OBS De Daverhof. In 1632, a teacher from Enspijk was employed by the municipality of Zoelen, to which Kerk-Avezaath belonged around that time. Presumably, from that year on, teaching in the church. In the course of the 17th century, some minor maintenance work was recorded, presumably to better separate the teaching and church space. A complaint from 1756 has been preserved, reading: "(...) how inconvenient the schoolhouse was under the tower".
