St. Michael's Golden Domed Cathedral (also known as St. Michael of the Golden Domes)

This beautiful Cathedral was originally built in 1108-1113 by Prince Svyatoslav II

It was later renovated and enlarged in the exuberant Ukrainian Baroque style in the late 17th and early 18th centuries although the interior remained Byzantine

St. Michael's Golden-Domed Cathedral was the second largest medieval church in Kiev

It was also one of the three churches in the St. Demetrius Monastery, later known as the St. Michael of the Golden Domes Monastery

In 1935-1936 the cathedral was demolished by the Bolsheviks

This was to make way for the construction of the new Ukrainian SSR capital centre, which was never completed

Smaller nearby monastery buildings survived

In 1997-1998 the Cathedral and its bell tower were completely rebuilt by the city authorities, and transferred to the Ukrainian Orthodox Church - Kiev Patriarchy

The complex is located northeast of the Saint Sophia Cathedral which was first Ukrainian patrimony to be inscribed on the World Heritage List
