The Archangel Michael's Cathedral is an Eastern Orthodox cathedral of the Eparchy of Turov in Mazyr, Belarus. Built of brick in late Baroque style as a two-towered, three-nave basilica, it was originally a Catholic church of a Bernardine monastery and was given to the Orthodox Church in 1864. It served as an NKVD prison from 1937 to 1941, reopened in 1952, and is protected as cultural heritage of Belarus.
