The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is a Latin Catholic cathedral on Gogol Street in Kharkiv, eastern Ukraine. Built in the Gothic Revival style between 1887 and 1892 to designs by the Polish architect Bolesław Michałowski, it was closed in the 1930s under Soviet rule and used as a cinema and Communist Party premises. It was returned to the Catholic faithful in 1992 and has been the cathedral of the Kharkiv–Zaporizhzhia diocese since 2002.
