St. Nikolaus, Architectural heritage monument and parish church in Munich, Germany.

St. Nikolaus is a Roman Catholic parish church at Stanigplatz 13 in Munich's Hasenbergl district. Built in 1962/63 to a design by Hansjakob Lill, it is a red-brick central building with four semicircular wall shells; four reinforced concrete columns carry the tent-like roof, and a connecting passage leads to the free-standing exposed-concrete tower.

St. Nikolaus was built in 1962/63 to a design by architect Hansjakob Lill. Auxiliary bishop Johannes Neuhäusler laid the foundation stone on 17 June 1962, and Cardinal Julius Döpfner consecrated the church on 23 June 1963. Its patron saint recalls the St. Nikolaus church in Nieder-Hochmutting, which burned down in 1800. Rupert Höckmayr became the first parish curate on 1 August 1961.

The parish church functions as a regular gathering place for worship and religious celebrations in this Munich neighborhood. The space embodies the Catholic traditions that remain central to local community life.

St. Nikolaus stands at Stanigplatz 13 in the Hasenbergl district, north Munich. The free-standing exposed-concrete tower is linked to the church by a connecting walkway, and a chapel occupies the tower's base up to the belfry. The site lies in a residential quarter, so approach on foot from the surrounding streets.

The free-standing tower is linked to the church by a connecting passage, and a chapel built into its base rises as far as the belfry. The eight windows of this tower chapel were made by Munich glass painter Karlheinz Krug. On the spire, a copper weathercock by sculptor Richard Stammberger turns with the wind.
