    Fig. 1. Udsnit af Resens prospekt af Århus. Efter kobberstik i Det kongelige Bibliotek. — Section of copper engraving ca. 1670, western part of Århus, the district around the Church of Our Lady, seen from the north (cf. p. 50, fig. 5). The former Dominican monastery, which has been a hospital and a Home for the Aged since ca. 1540, can be seen adjoining the church. At the top of the picture is Århus River and no. 36 in the plan shows one of the city's main thoroughfares, Vestergade. VOR FRUE KIRKE TIDLIGERE S. NICOLAI KIRKE n generel omtale af de ældre gejstlige og bymæssige forhold i Århus findes p. 51 ff. I Hellig Niels' E levnedsbeskrivelse berettes1, at bisp Svend (1156—1191) ikke ønskede den hellige mand begravet i det trækapel, som Niels selv havde udset sig, men derimod i S. Nicolai kirke, som dengang var stiftets domkirke. Herudover omtales S. Nicolai kirke eller kloster i få middelalderlige kilder, blandt andet 1203 (p. 52), 12922, 14853 og 15044. Den 12. november 1541 bestemte kongen, at »sortebrødreklostret i Århus med hvad huse, »planner« (flade områder), bygning og abildgård, som findes norden og vesten S. Nicolai kirke og desligeste det vandløb, som der kommer igennem muren fra S. Karine gård, med alt andet af klostrets gårde og haverum i sin længde og bredde, som det nu er forefundet, herefter til evig tid skal blive et almindeligt hospital for syge og fattige«5. Da dette hospital den dag i dag har til huse i middelalderlige klosterbygninger ved den 1004 ÅRHUS BY: VOR FRUE KIRKE nuværende Vor Frue kirke, kan der ikke herske tvivl om, at denne kirke er identisk med de middelalderlige kilders S.
