    The Nikolaikirche is one of the oldest buildings in the city. It is mentioned for the first time as a Nikolaikapelle in the Akener Schöffenbuch in 1265. It can be assumed that it was founded by merchants and travelers who used the Aken Elbe crossing. In 1270 the St. Nicholas' Chapel was raised to the rank of collegiate church by the Augustinian canons. In the years 1317 - 1335 the collegiate church, which was destroyed by a devastating flood of the Elbe (1316), was restored.
