The Nicolai Church carries on its western end the year 1757, the time of its enlargement. It was built probably around 1400. The church is dedicated to St. Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors.

In old documents, however, is the edification of the year 1400, the speech with which the construction of the stone church and not the original wooden chapel is meant. The church was built in 1912 equipped with a wooden bell tower.
