Old St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, Russian Orthodox church in Eklutna, United States.

Old St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church, also called the Eklutna Chapel, is a hewn spruce-log building of about 5 by 8 metres, roughly one mile inland from the Knik Arm of Cook Inlet. It stands beside the cemetery's two Russian Orthodox churches, the newer one built next to it in 1962.

The church was built in 1894 from local spruce logs and moved to its current location in 1900 near the Knik Arm of Cook Inlet. This relocation preserved the structure and allowed it to become part of a growing historical collection.

The cemetery beside the church holds about 80 brightly painted spirit houses, built by Dena'ina Athabaskan families over a burial ground founded roughly 350 years ago. The old chapel and the 1962 church stand at its entrance, and one altar in the new church is dedicated to Saint Herman, patron saint of Alaska.

The site lies at mile 26.5 of the Glenn Highway, about 40 km north of Anchorage and roughly one mile inland from the Knik Arm of Cook Inlet. The old log chapel and the 1962 church stand side by side at the cemetery entrance, where about 80 brightly painted spirit houses are grouped. Expect unpaved ground and cold winters.

The cemetery beside the church holds around 80 brightly painted spirit houses, small structures built over graves by Dena'ina Athabaskan families.
