Architecture The church in Donje Nerodimlje was dedicated to Saint Nicholas, and was rebuilt in 1983 on the foundations of the former Orthodox temple. It was built as a single nave building with an altar apse. A century-old oak tree stood there and the believers used to gather there even while the church was in ruins.
