The church of St. Nicholas is situated on the plateau under Prvi vrh of Marjan. It was built in 1219, using their own funds, by the resident of Split Rako and his wife Elizabeta. It was later donated to St. Stephen’s abbey on Sustipan. There was a hermit’s house next to it which was demolished in 1922 when the roads and observation points were being built on Marjan. The Romanesque-Gothic bell tower was added to the south-eastern wall of the church later. The front façade of the church features a Gothic-Renaissance statue of Christ with the images of grapes and wheat, which symbolise the Eucharist. The latest renovation of the church was in 1990, when a memorial panel from the outside wall of the church was placed inside, and a new panel with corrected information was placed next to the church. For the festivity of St. Nicholas, 6 December, the traditional mass is celebrated in this church on Marjan.
