Church of St Nicholas, Eastern Orthodox church monument in Vukovo, Bulgaria.
The Church of St Nicholas features stone walls covered in white plaster, with dimensions of 4.43 by 2.75 meters and stone plates on the roof.
Built in the 16th century, this small church stands 2 kilometers south of Vukovo village in a deep, hard-to-access valley location.
The interior walls and western facade contain painted frescoes from medieval Bulgaria, though only fragments of the original artwork remain visible today.
The church includes one nave and one apse without a narthex, constructed partially underground with a semi-cylindrical vault structure.
Despite its small size, the church holds dual status as both a local architectural monument and a national artistic treasure of Bulgaria.
