St. Nicholas' Coastal Church, Baroque church in Podil, Ukraine.
The church features a symmetrical design with white walls, green domes, and intricate decorative elements typical of Ukrainian Baroque architecture.
Initially mentioned in 1543 as a wooden structure near the Dnieper River, the current stone building was constructed between 1772 and 1775.
Within the church walls, restoration efforts in 1972 revealed original frescoes from the 18th century depicting Ukrainian officers wearing traditional Cossack clothing.
The church stands at the intersection of Skovorody and Pochaynynska Streets, maintaining regular religious services since its return to the community in 1992.
During the Soviet period until 1960, this church remained the only active religious institution in Kyiv, later serving as storage for film reels.
