The most important church in Perast is dedicated to Saint Nicholas. Its bell tower, which is visible from far away, can be climbed. Once you reach the top, a fantastic view in all directions awaits you.

The Church of St. Nicholas is the largest church in the ancient town of Perast.

The church acquired its current appearance in 1616, probably after the extension of an earlier church from 1564. Restoration work took place in 1699. Next to the old Church of St. Nicholas, at the back, there is an unfinished church designed by the Venetian architect Giuseppe Beati.

The steps next to the church are adventurous, but the journey is worth it.
