St. Nicholas' Church (Niguliste kirik) is a medieval Gothic church in Tallinn, Estonia, dedicated to Saint Nicholas, patron of fishermen and sailors. Built as a Catholic church in the 13th century, it became Lutheran during the Protestant Reformation in the 1520s. Partially destroyed in Soviet bombing during World War II, it has since been restored and now houses the Niguliste Museum, a branch of the Art Museum of Estonia, focusing on medieval and later ecclesiastical art, and is used as a concert hall.
