Church of Saint Nicholas in Old Vagankovo, Eastern Orthodox church in Arbat District, Moscow, Russia.

The Church of Saint Nicholas stands at Starovagankovsky Lane 14, featuring white stone walls and traditional Orthodox architectural elements with a single cupola.

Originally constructed in 1531 as a stone structure, the church underwent multiple reconstructions, including major renovations between 1747 and 1759.

The church maintains regular Orthodox services since 1992 and contains a wooden statue of Saint Nicholas of Mozhaisk within its walls.

The religious building, now part of the Russian State Library complex, functions both as an active church and houses a nonstate educational institution.

The church basement, made of white stone from its 1531 construction, remains as the oldest surviving element of the original structure.
