St Nicolai-Kirche, Baroque church in Kappeln, Germany.

The church features a wooden vaulted ceiling, a double-story gallery in the western section, and a dome-crowned tower with a slender lantern.

Between 1789 and 1793, Hans Adolf von Rumohr commissioned Johann Adam Richter to construct this church, replacing a deteriorated 12th-century structure.

The interior displays northern German late baroque design elements, including an altar piece by Hans Gudewerdt from Eckernförde, modified between 1792 and 1793.

The church grounds contain a memorial for the 1870-1871 war and a Two-Emperor monument, surrounded by a row of linden trees.

In 2014, the church received a new organ built by Reinalt Johannes Klein workshop in Lübeck, incorporating historical materials and restored registers across 40 stops.
