The church of San Nicolò, or rather the former church of San Nicolò, was a Catholic religious building in Rovereto, built around 1479. It is located on Piazza Filzi in the Borgo Sacco district. It was originally built by/for raftsmen, whose rafting was often dangerous, which is why the entrance was once located on the Adige. With the construction of the bridge over the Adige, the entrance would be moved to the square in front. Due to its low location, it was often affected by the Adige floods, as were its frescoes. The church was desecrated and is now the seat of the constituency.

The square in Borgo Sacco

Borgo Sacco boasts two striking buildings: the former church of San Nicolò and the clock tower. The church was built in 1479 by raftsmen on the Adige River, rebuilt several times, and repeatedly restored after flood damage. Today, it is deconsecrated and serves as the seat of the district administration, but its interior still contains frescoes and some valuable works of art, such as an altarpiece of St. Nicholas. Not far from it stands the clock tower, originally part of the medieval city fortifications. It was expanded in the 16th century, received a clock in 1519, and served for a long time as a signal and bell tower. Together, both buildings characterize the historic center of Borgo Sacco.
