Collégiale Saint-Nicolas de Munster, Gothic collegiate church in Munster, France.

The Saint-Nicolas Church features two prominent steeples reaching 73 meters in height, with stonework reflecting traditional regional construction methods.

The church construction dates back to the 13th century, following Lord Guillaume de Torcheville's commitment to build a chapel after escaping from a marsh.

Inside the church, lion heads decorate the stalls while contemporary stained glass windows created by Didier Gallet in 1988 enhance the interior space.

The church building stands at 32 Rue du Presbytère in Munster, with guided tours available through advance arrangements at the local town hall.

A severe storm on December 26, 1999, damaged the tower tops, leading to ongoing restoration work to return the structure to its original condition.
