St. Nicholas' Church, Volgograd

St. Nicholas' Church[1] (Russian: Храм Святого Николая) is a parish of the Roman Catholic Church in the city of Volgograd, within the Diocese of St. Clement at Saratov in Russia.

[2] The church was built in 1899[3] in the neo-Gothic style, with a topped tower with a spire and side chapels dedicated to the Virgin Mary and St. Stanislaus.

Amidst anti-religious persecution, the church was closed by the Soviet authorities in 1930, looted and vandalized.

Today it collaborates with the parish Caritas organization, the Pope John XXIII Association, and the Norbertine nuns.

[4] The facade of the church has a pointed arch and a rosette above the main entrance.
