Церковь Святого Николая

Церковь Святого Николая, Eastern Orthodox church in Verchniadzvinsk, Belarus.

Saint Nicholas Church is an Eastern Orthodox building designed in the classical style that stands in the center of Verchniadzvinsk. The structure features a rectangular body with a bell tower that forms an integral part of the main design.

The building was constructed in 1819 as part of the early nineteenth-century religious architecture in northern Belarus. This period marked when classical design principles were applied to Orthodox church construction in the region.

The church is dedicated to Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker, and in 1895 it was recorded as a cathedral, with the wooden Boris and Gleb cemetery church attached to it. Inside are icons including "Evangelists Matthew and Luke" (18th century), "Nativity of the Mother of God" (late 18th century) and "Mother of God of Ostrabrama" (19th century).

The church stands at 20 Gagarina Street, on the spit where the Drissa meets the Western Dvina. The building is active; it was closed after the war and reopened later. Visitors should dress modestly and avoid entering during services.

The church kept its doors open during the Second World War, then was closed again in the post-war years. For its 185th anniversary in 2004, parishioners funded a bell weighing 7 poods (about 115 kg), cast for the building. The interior holds icons from the 18th and 19th centuries, including "Evangelists Matthew and Luke" and a 19th-century Ostrabrama Mother of God.
