Church of Saint Nicholas, Parish church in Šaratice, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Nicholas is a Neo-Renaissance parish church on the village square of Šaratice, near the primary and nursery school. It replaced a small Romanesque church of the same dedication, was built in 1902 and consecrated on 4 August 1903 by Brno bishop František Saleský Bauer. Its tower hangs two bells, one from 1523 and one from 1697.

A small Romanesque church of the same dedication stood here until the end of the 19th century, when it became too small for the parish. The last Mass was said on 1 April 1902 and demolition began the same day. The foundation stone of the new Neo-Renaissance church was laid about a month later, the shell was finished by the end of that year, and Bishop František Saleský Bauer consecrated it on 4 August 1903.

The church is the parish church of the Šaratice parish, and the village's Catholic life centres on it. Its patron saint, Nicholas, is shown in the main altar painting, a copy of an original from 1773. The pulpit in front of the presbytery comes from the earlier church on the same site.

The church stands on the village square (náves), next to the primary and kindergarten school. Before the entrance are a protected Baroque stone statue of St John of Nepomuk from the 18th century and a cast-iron cross dated 1863. The library, the municipal office with shop and post office, and the World War I memorial are close by.

The pulpit inside came from the earlier church demolished in 1902, and the high altar painting of Saint Nicholas is a copy of a 1773 original. In the tower hang two bells, one cast in 1523 and the other in 1697.
