St. Nicholas Within is a former Church of Ireland parish church in Dublin city, Ireland. It was located at the corner of Nicholas Street and Christchurch Place, where part of its entrance may be seen next to the Peace Park although this structure was disassembled and rebuilt approximately 10-15 metres back from its original location in 1911 as part of road widening works.

The term may also refer to the civil parish in the barony of Dublin City which was one of nine and a half baronies in the old County Dublin.
