The Saint Nicholas Church (Swedish: Sankt Nikolai kyrka) or the Nicholas Church (Swedish: Nikolaikyrkan) is a church building in central Örebro, Sweden. It was originally called the Örebro Church (Swedish: Örebro kyrka) because it was the only Church of Sweden church building in town until the early 20th century.
