Parish church St. Nikolai, Parish church in Forst, Germany
The church features a square west tower completed in 1570, with steel cast bells representing faith, love, and hope added during the 1950s reconstruction.
Construction of the current church structure began around 1400, with its vaulting completed in 1516 and the Jacob Chapel, now Bonhoeffer Chapel, added in 1508.
The church serves the local parish community of Forst-Stadt within the Cottbus church district of the Evangelical Church Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Upper Lusatia.
The building underwent substantial renovations in 2002, including a major organ overhaul and installation of modern facilities for visitors and worshippers.
Heinrich von Brühl, an influential political figure, rests in one of the church crypts after contributing to its transformation from gothic to baroque architecture.
