Krustpils Svētā Nikolaja pareizticīgo baznīca ir pareizticīgo dievnams, kas celts bizantiešu stilā un iesvētīts 1910. gadā Svētā Nikolaja godam. Pirmā Pasaules kara laikā no baznīcas pāri palikušas bija tikai sienas, bet no garīdznieku mājas — pamati, savukārt no aptuveni 1000 draudzes locekļiem bija tikai palikusi puse. 1920. gadā no Krievijas atgriezās Marijas patvēruma un aizlūguma baznīcas pārzinis tēvs Vladimirs Borozdinskis, kurš uzsāka baznīcas atjaunošanu.

Jau no 1922. gada atsākās pastāvīgi dievkalpojumi. 1928. gadā ar tēva Jēkaba Karpa gādību baznīcas iekšpuse tika izrotāta ar jaunu svētbilžu sienu, draudzes locekles uzgleznoja astoņas ikonas. Daudzas svētbildes ziedoja arī paši draudzes locekļi. Pēc Otrā Pasaules kara baznīcu atkal bija jāatjauno. Tomēr tai izdevās pārdzīvot padomju laikus, lai gan vairākus gadu desmitus baznīca burtiski atradās „pa vidu” intensīvam satiksmes krustojumam. Pirms dažiem gadiem satiksmes organizācija baznīcas apkārtnē tika mainīta, novirzot auto plūsmu pa vienu ēkas pusi, savukārt otrā pusē iekārtota ērta auto stāvvieta baznīcas apmeklētājiem.

Krustpils St.Nikolai ortodox church was built in the Byzantine style and was consecrated in 1910. in honor of St. Nicholas. During the First World War, the church was left was only the walls. In 1920. people started the church restoration.

In the Second World War, the church was again restored. However, it managed to survive the Soviet times, although for decades the church was literally "in the middle" of heavy traffic intersection. A few years ago the traffic organization around the church was changed by directing the flow of cars along one side of the building, while in the other side was made a comfortable parking for church visitors.
