Chapelle orthodoxe russe Saint-Nicolas de Nice, Orthodox chapel in Nice, France

The Saint Nicholas Russian Orthodox Chapel stands within the Russian Orthodox Cemetery, featuring neoclassical architecture and traditional religious decorations throughout its interior.

The chapel was established in 1867 during a period when numerous Russian nobles and expatriates settled along the French Riviera in Nice.

The chapel maintains regular Orthodox services and ceremonies according to Russian traditions, preserving religious practices for the local Eastern Orthodox community.

Visitors can access the chapel through the Russian Orthodox Cemetery entrance, where they can explore both the religious structure and surrounding memorial grounds.

The ownership of this religious structure was subject to legal proceedings until 2011, when courts determined it belonged to the Russian Federation.
