Museum of History of St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery in Kyiv, Religious museum in Upper City, Ukraine.

The museum occupies the bell tower of St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery, displaying artifacts that document the spiritual journey of this religious complex through centuries.

Founded in 1998, the museum preserves fragments of the original 12th-century cathedral, including rescued mosaics and frescoes that survived the 1937 Soviet demolition.

The exhibition halls contain ecclesiastical objects, manuscripts, and religious art pieces that represent Orthodox Christian traditions from medieval Kyiv to modern times.

Visitors can access the museum through the monastery grounds at Triokhsviatytelska Street 6, with information panels provided in Ukrainian and English languages.

The museum collection includes original architectural elements from 1108, retrieved from the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg and returned to Ukraine in 2001.
