St. Nicholas’ Church, the youngest and probably the most beautiful of the Gothic churches of the Khust district, was built in 1779. The temple is three-unit, two-nave, and constructed without any metal nails used in the process. The church is built of oak beams on a foundation made of stone. Also, 5,000 chicken and goose eggs were used in its construction. St. Nicholas Church has a framework tower, which rises above the narthex, and the height of the spire reaches 14 meters. The roof is covered with wood shingles. Next to the church is a two-tiered framework bell tower with three bells. In 2011-2012, restoration work was undertaken in both the temple and the bell tower. There’s a preserved 18th-century iconostasis with nine icons, as well as the wall murals done by German artist I. Kornmayer in 1828.

Architectural monument of national importance.
