Church of St Nicholas, Siġġiewi, Baroque parish church in Siġġiewi, Malta

The Church of St Nicholas features a central dome, side aisles, and a portico designed by architect Lorenzo Gafà between 1675 and 1693.

The present church replaced an older parish church from the 15th century, receiving consecration in 1729 and additional expansions in 1862 by architect Nikol Zammit.

The church interior contains a titular painting by Mattia Preti and a wooden processional statue crafted by Pietro Felici in 1736.

The church holds religious services during the annual feast of Saint Nicholas in June and the liturgical celebration on December 6.

A stone statue by Pietro Felici stands in the church square with a Latin inscription requesting the saint to protect the surrounding fields.
