Saint Nicholas Church, Roman-Byzantine church in Fontvieille, Monaco
The Saint Nicholas Church stands with white stones from La Turbie, featuring a wide staircase spanning its entire facade and a large rose window above the entrance.
The church emerged during Monaco's transformation in the late 19th century, replacing a medieval structure that received papal permission for construction in 1247.
The cathedral's interior contains 183 restored stained glass windows and holds significant Renaissance artworks, including paintings by Ludovico Brea depicting various saints.
The church maintains regular visiting hours and provides access to view its architectural features, religious artifacts, and the Great Organ with 7000 pipes.
A modern plexiglass covering on the Grand Organ illuminates according to the musical notes played during performances.
