Троїцька церква розташована у грецькому кварталі Ніжина. Однокупольний кам'яний храм у стилі бароко споруджений у 1733 році.

В 1888 році був ґрунтовно перебудований, внаслідок чого набув рис класицизму. Зокрема було повністю змінено форму купола, із західного боку прибудовано двоярусну дзвіницю зі шпилем. Церковне подвір'я обнесене кованою огорожею в кінці ХІХ століття. На огорожі є оригінальний напис з датою останньої реконструкції та прізвищем її ініціатора.

Тривалий час Троїцький храм було закрито, приміщеня церкви використовувалося як архівосховище. Нині Ніжинська міська рада розпочала процес щодо повернення Троїцької церкви громаді міста і ухвалила відповідне рішення.
