The place is a must-see for lovers of instrumental music and gothic architecture.
The Music hall was finished in 1978, were a special attention was given to aesthetic decoration as well as making comfortable conditions for a hall.
Built specifically for the organ hall, masters of "Rieger-Kloss" Company (Czechoslovakia) constructed a big concert organ. They tried to approximate its look to the architecture of the church, unifying unique arquitecture with a unique instrument." - Eugene Shylov

This attraction requires a trip to the western outskirts of Dnipro, but if you’re an avid fan of classical and scared music you won’t regret coming to see a performance.
There’s a lively programme of recitals by choirs, chamber ensembles and soloists at a deconsecrated church.
The former St Nicholas’ Church was built in an Eclectecist style in 1915 and is distinguished by its unusual rotunda.
It suffered throughout the Soviet era but was preserved as a national monument.
A Sauer organ was installed in the 80s and the church became a music venue for its superlative acoustics.

Monumental and fabulous Catholic church. We've came to listen Vivaldi, Tchaikovsky and Piazzolla and it was amazing! Thank you, we will surely come again!

I used to go there quite often for the organ concerts or just walking around with my tourists during walking tours. Always amazing! Free entrance

The only place in Kyiv, where you can listen to live organ often with great string ensembles. Musicians play completely without any audio boosts via speakers and rely solely oh church's acoustics. So you can feel real organ power each time performer goes solo.
Great place for listening to classical music with concerts almost every evening.

Very inspiring place for classical music lovers. The musicians are great, the repertoire is wonderful but state of such amazing building is catastrophic.

Not the best organ but still the place to go if you like it. Might be really chill when it's cold outside.
