Saint Nicholas' Church, Shanghai

St Nicholas Church (Chinese: 圣尼古拉堂) was a Russian Orthodox Church in the former French Concession of Shanghai at 16 rue Corneille, now known as Gāolán Lù.

The building was built in 1932 on the initiative of White Russians in Shanghai, refugees of the revolution of 1917, especially General Glebov.

The church was closed in 1949, when Europeans left following the Chinese Civil War.

During the Expo 2010, its loft was reconsecrated to allow Russian Orthodox services to be held there.
