Church of St. Nicholas in Zamość, Eastern Orthodox church in Zamość, Poland

The Church of St. Nicholas stands with a Renaissance portal in its vestibule, decorated with rosettes and a black marble Baroque stoup at the entrance.

Between 1618 and 1631, Jan Jaroszewicz designed and built this church, which later transferred from Russian Orthodox Brotherhood to Basilian monks in 1706.

The church interior displays detailed stucco decorations across the nave and apses ceiling, reflecting traditional Eastern Orthodox architectural elements.

Located at Tadeusza Kościuszki 1, the church maintains regular opening hours and welcomes visitors for tours, services, and personal prayer throughout the week.

The church tower functioned as both an observation point and a shooting range due to its strategic position near the fortress walls.
