The Archangel Michael's Cathedral is an Orthodox cathedral of the Eparchy of Turov located in Mazyr, Belarus. It was built in the 17th century as a Catholic church of Bernardine monastery in late Baroque style in the form of a two-towered three-nave basilica. In 1864 it was given to the Eastern Orthodox Church. From 1937 to 1941 it was used as an NKVD prison. The cathedral was reopened in 1952 and reconstructed in the 1980s and the 2010s.
