Saint-Nicolas Church, Gothic church near Ill River in Strasbourg, France

The Saint-Nicolas Church features an elongated stone structure with a tapering spire erected in 1585 and rooms decorated with 15th-century frescoes.

Construction of the church began in 1387 on the site of a former chapel dedicated to Mary Magdalene, with completion achieved in 1454.

Jean Calvin conducted services at this church in 1538, while Albert Schweitzer served as pastor from 1900 to 1913 and performed organ music.

The church stands at 9 Quai Saint-Nicolas and currently hosts weekly gatherings of the Renouveau Saint Nicholas charismatic community.

Theodor Heuss, who later became President of Germany, celebrated his wedding here in 1908 with Albert Schweitzer presiding over the ceremony.
