St Nicholas Kirk


Entrance to the St Nicholas Kirk, from Union Street. The Kirk is also known as "The Mither Kirk" (mother church) of the city.  Despite the many alterations to the fabric of the Kirk over the year's, St Nicholas retains a larger number of medieval effigies than any other Scottish parish church, though none of these are in their original positions. The Vault or Chapel of Our Lady of Pity survives under the east end of the Kirk. It has been refaced externally, but retains its medieval vaults within.
