    The Sint-Nicolaaskerk is a church in the Limburg village of Meijel. It is located in the old village center ("De Donk"), on the same site where the Meijelse churches used to stand. The church tower has a height of 79.8 meters, making it one of the highest church towers in the Netherlands.

    The design by architect Alphons Boosten envisaged a church building with two towers and a dome. After Boosten's death in early 1951, contact with his architectural firm was broken off, partly because the design was considered too expensive. The architect Frits Peutz was then contacted. He presented a construction drawing from 1950 that was originally intended for the Heilige Geestkerk in Roermond, but was rejected there. The design was approved in Meijel and construction of the current church building began on March 21, 1954. The official opening of St. Nicholas' Church took place on April 9, 1955. In 1968 the building was declared a national monument.
