Church of Saint Nicholas, Religious monument in Hnidousy, Czech Republic

The Church of Saint Nicholas is a filial church built in 1912–1913 to Anton Möller's Art Nouveau design. It has a rectangular nave with a flat, beamed ceiling, a south-facing semicircular apse, and a prismatic tower at the northwest corner topped by a low polygonal lantern with a doubled bell-shaped helmet. The walls are painted brick, with ochre plaster on the tower and main facade.

The church was designed by the Varnsdorf builder Anton Möller in January 1912 and built in 1912–1913 in Art Nouveau style for the mining villages of Hnidousy and Motyčín, whose inhabitants had walked to distant Pchery. The land was donated by Břevnov Monastery and the St. Boniface Society sought a 35,000-crown subsidy from Vienna. It was consecrated on 15 June 1915 and has been a cultural monument since 5 April 2022.

The church is a filial church of the Kladno parish based at the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. It is consecrated to Saint Nicholas and stands in the Hnidousy quarter of Švermov. The building was designed by Anton Möller and is protected as a cultural monument of the Czech Republic since 5 April 2022.

The church stands in the Hnidousy quarter of Švermov, in the north-western corner of the building, where the prism tower with the clock faces rises. It is a filial church of the Kladno parish based at the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, so services are not held daily; visitors should check the parish's current listing before travelling.

The church was built in 1912–1913 to plans by Varnsdorf builder Anton Möller, and the land was donated by Břevnov Monastery. Motyčín had refused the church, so it rose in Hnidousy instead. The bell was hung in 1914, and the church was consecrated on 15 June 1915 by dean Ferdinand Kučera of Smecno.
