Sint-Niklaaskerk, Church building in Oostduinkerke, Belgium
The Sint-Niklaaskerk features a yellow brick facade with a central square tower flanked by arched walkways and corner buttresses.
Built between 1952 and 1956 by architect Jean Gilson, this church replaced the original parish structure destroyed during World War II in 1940.
The church interior displays ceramic Stations of the Cross by J. Maes and two figurative bas-reliefs created by Gerard Thienpont in 1966.
Located at Leopold II Laan 85 in Oostduinkerke, the church occupies a precinct area of 15,788 square meters with multiple entrance points.
The church tower supports a 13.5-meter terracotta statue of Christ, recognized as the largest cast terracotta sculpture in existence.
