Church of Saint Nicholas, Baroque church in Týniště nad Orlicí, Czech Republic.

The Church of Saint Nicholas is a stone Roman Catholic parish church whose present building was begun in 1692 on the site of a wooden predecessor destroyed by fire in 1686. Its characteristic facade with a front tower dates from 1794, and a clock storey was added to the tower in 1941.

The church is first documented in 1361, when the lords Mutina and his son Sezema of Dobruška made a donation to it; this wooden building burned repeatedly, and a fire in 1686 also destroyed much of the town. Construction of the present stone church began in 1692 on the burnt site. The facade with its front tower dates from 1794, and a clock storey was added to the tower in 1941.

The church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas, a patron figure deeply honored in this region's religious traditions. It continues to serve as the center of worship and community gatherings for local residents.

The building is centrally located in town and easily accessible from the main road. Visitors should note that religious services occur at set times and interior access may vary depending on worship schedules.

The main altar painting by Jan Umlauf of Kyšperk (today Letohrad) shows Saint Nicholas descending to children above a view of Týniště nad Orlicí during a flood, when the Orlice spread wide enough for a large sea ship to sail on it. The children of local notables were painted from life.
