St. Nikolaus, Baroque revival church in Frauenfeld, Switzerland
The Saint Nicholas Church stands on a molasse rock formation, with a wide nave, narrow side aisles, and a prominent bell tower at the entrance.
The original chapel from 1285 underwent multiple transformations, including reconstruction after the 1771 city fire, before the current structure was built in 1906.
The church contains a mechanical Metzler organ with 44 stops and a set of six bronze bells cast by the Rüetschi foundry.
Saint Nicholas Church accommodates 750 people and remains open daily from 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM for visitors, prayers, and religious ceremonies.
The interior renovation in 1967 transformed the original dark red, white, and gold color scheme into a multi-colored decorative pattern.
