Nikolai-Kirche in Villach

Nikolai-Kirche in Villach, Protected parish church in Villach, Austria.

Nikolai-Kirche is a Gothic Revival parish church in Villach featuring a basilica layout with a cross-shaped floor plan and a three-sided choir at its eastern end. The structure displays characteristic stone construction typical of its architectural period.

The parish of Saint Nicholas was first mentioned in 1309, with the original church located southeast of the current building on Trattengasse street. The site was later relocated and the new structure built following Gothic Revival principles.

The church maintains an active schedule of religious education programs, including theology studies and preparation classes for Catholic sacraments throughout the year.

The church is open daily for visitors and holds regular services throughout the week. Details about current visiting hours and special events can be checked locally or with the parish office.

The main altar created in 1896 by Clemens Raffeiner houses a statue of Saint Nicholas at its center. This artwork demonstrates late 19th-century craftsmanship and continues to be a focal point of devotion.
