Arch in thecfront of Sct. Nicolai Church in Copenhagen 

The Nikolaj Contemporary Art Center (Nikolaj Kunsthal), formerly from 2006 - 2010 "Kunsthallen Nikolaj" and until 2006) Nikolaj Udstillingsbygning) is an arts centre  in Copenhagen   which occupies the former St. Nicholas Church (Sankt Nikolaj Kirke), one of the city's most conspicuous landmarks. It is situated on Højbro Plads  a few steps away from Amagertorv  and Strøget. The church building is noted for its fanciful Neo-Baroque 90 m (300 ft) long spire. The tower offers some of the best views of the city centre.

The original church building was constructed in the early thirteenth century and was one of Copenhagen's oldest church. In 1530, the Lutheran theologian Hans Tavsen (1494–1561) preached the first Lutheran sermon within Copenhagen in St Nicholas Church The fire in 1795  burned down most of the building, and from 1805, it was no longer an official church. Though church ruins were demolished, the sturdy tower remains standing in the present day. Butcher stalls occupied the area around the tower until the second half of the 1800s when they were closed.
The current building, which opened in 1912, is by a design of the architect, Hans Christian Amberg  (1749–1815 representing a modern reconstruction of the destroyed church. The current spire is also a modern reconstruction of the original, financed in 1909 at the initiative and expense of the brewer Carl Jacobsen  (1842-1914). He also financed the 1915–1917 repairs
The tower has served as a naval museum and its attic was at one time a libary . It was also the focus of Hans Christian Andersen drama, Love of Nicolai Tower performed in 1829 at the Royal Theatre. When the internationally notable Danish sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen returned to Copenhagen in 1838 after living and working for 40 years in Rome, a flag was hoisted on the tower when his ship approached to alert residents of his arrival.

Nikolaj collaborates with a range of organisations locally, nationally and internationally in the realm of new artistic forms and media. The art center's focus is on Danish and international contemporary art. The first art exhibitions occurred at Nikolaj in 1957. Nikolaj gained prominence after the Fjuxus performances of the 1960s organized by Knud Pedersen  and Arthur Köpcke.
Nikolaj is focussing on contemporary art with two annual exhibitions, one by children, and another one by an older artist who is deemed to have had a pioneering effect on modern art Jananne Al-Ani, Leonard Cohen, Andreas Emenius, Helmut Newton and Kutlug  and  have exhibited notably at Nikolaj.
