    St. Nicholas Church (Niguliste kirik) is a pre-medieval church in Tallinn, Estonia. It is dedicated to fishermen and sailors. It was originally built in the 13th century and was partially destroyed during the Soviet bombing of Tallinn in World War II. It has since been restored and now houses the Niguliste Museum, an offshoot of the Estonian Museum of Art, which is dedicated primarily to church art since the Middle Ages. The former church is also used as a concert hall.

    It was an Orthodox church built during the Tsarist rule. Now there are still one third of the Russians in Asania, so the church is full of believers and strict with tourists. It is not allowed to take photos and take off sunglasses.
