St. Nicholas church, Baroque church in Eupen, Belgium

Saint Nicholas Church displays three naves supported by fourteen pillars that uphold the dome-shaped groin vault of the central hall structure.

Municipal architect Laurenz Mefferdatis designed and built the church between 1721 and 1729, incorporating parts of a previous 12th-century structure in the south tower.

The church interior contains 84 oak wood pews made between 1730 and 1850, with carved names indicating donations from town officials and private citizens.

Located on Marktplatz in central Eupen, the church provides wheelchair access and regular religious services for the local Catholic community.

The high altar, funded by local cloth merchants, was created between 1740 and 1744 by Aachen architect Johann Joseph Couven with detailed carvings.
