Saint Nicholas Church, Roman Catholic church in Wasquehal, France.

Saint Nicholas Church features a high Gothic tower, white stone walls, and pointed arch windows surrounding its single-nave structure with hemicycle apse.

The current building, completed in 1929, replaced several previous religious structures on Maurice-Schumann Square, with the first documented church dating from the 9th century.

The church maintains three altars dedicated to Saint Nicholas, Our Lady, and Saint Joseph, representing the religious devotion of the local community.

Located in central Wasquehal on Rue d'Austerlitz, the church offers five daily services during weekdays and holds wedding ceremonies on Saturdays.

Archaeological excavations in 1992 revealed medieval tombs and foundations of the original church beneath the current structure.
