The Book of Concord (1580) or Concordia (frequently called the Lutheran Confessions) is the historic doctrinal standard of the Lutheran Church, consisting of ten credal documents deemed authoritative in Lutheranism since the 16th century.

The Book of Concord was published in German on June 25, 1580, in Dresden, Germany, the fiftieth anniversary of the presentation of the Augsburg Confession to Emperor Charles V at the Diet of Augsburg.
