The Church of St. Nicholas (Serbian: Црква светог Николе) in Erdevik is a Serbian Orthodox church in Vojvodina, Serbia dedicated to Saint Nicholas. The church was constructed in 1804.[2] The building is one of three churches in the village with the second one being Roman Catholic church from 1890 and the third Slovak Evangelical Church from 1902.[2][3] Iconostasis of the church was painted in 1807 by Georgije Bakalović.[4] The church is a single-nave building with a semicircular altar apse in the east, and a representative bell tower.[5] The Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments of Sremska Mitrovica adopted the initial decision on protection (no. 189) of 8 December 1977 while the building was listed as a protected cultural heritage of Serbia in 1997.[5]
