Orthodox Church of Saint Nicholas

The Orthodox church of St Nicholas on Treiali street in Kopli was built on the site of the former fire depot of the Russo-Baltic shipyard. The congregation's first church burned to the ground over Christmas 1934. Under the leadership of priest Dionissi Samon a new one was built in 1936 to designs by architect Aleksander Wladowsky, and Metropolitan Aleksander consecrated it on 13 November that year. In 2012 Tallinn city council handed the plot over to the congregation.

Kopli Treiali tänaval asuv Püha Nikolause õigeusu kirik ehitati endise Vene-Balti laevatehase tuletõrjedepoo kohale. Koguduse esimene kirik põles 1934. aasta jõulude ajal maani maha. Preester Dionissi Samoni eestvõttel ehitati 1936. aastal arhitekt Aleksander Wladowsky projekti järgi uus kirik, mille metropoliit Aleksander pühitses sama aasta 13. novembril. 2012. aastal andis Tallinna linnavolikogu kinnistu koguduse omandisse.
