St. Nicholas' Church, Catholic church in Opfingen district, Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany.

The symmetrical church structure features a large stepped gable roof and a robust tower with a hexagonal base on the east side.

The church building, constructed between 1984 and 1986 according to architect Michel Geis plans, stands at the village entrance on Freiburg Street.

The entrance portal displays a representation of Saint Nicholas, crafted in oak by Freiburg sculptor H.P. Wernet, honoring the church's patron saint.

The church contains a modern organ installed in 2003 by Waldkircher Orgelbau with 22 registers across two manuals and a pedal system.

Four bells in the tower create the Salve Regina ringing motif, with three bells added in 2019 to complement the original 1986 Karlsruhe bell.
