The cathedral is located in the center of Minsk. Conveniently located, right on Nemiga. Very ancient architecture. At the same time, it gives the impression of a warm temple, where they are trying to preserve the building and the prayerful spirit of centuries-old traditions. The male choir, which sometimes sings on Saturday evening, makes an indelible impression at the service. The sound is cheerful, fresh, very inspiring and tuning! Deacons have strong voices, they pronounce everything clearly and distinctly. The sound in the temple — you can hear every word! It has become much better compared to what it was before. Good candlemakers, no one pokes at the handkerchiefs... It's nice to come in and ask God for help, to thank him for what is sometimes so difficult to accept

The oldest church in the city. The cathedral was built from 1612 to 1620 in the Baroque style. The cathedral looks like a Catholic cathedral, but it has always been an Orthodox church, although it was significantly rebuilt. Of course, with a rich history. Previously, it was surrounded by a large Peter and Paul Monastery, which was even visited by Metropolitan Peter Grave of Kiev, Galicia and All Russia. An extremely interesting place. During the Soviet years, the cathedral was closed. In December 1941, it was opened, but in 1944 it was closed again and rebuilt for residential premises, then for an archive. From 1972 to 1978, the cathedral was restored in order to recreate its original appearance. It was opened in 1991. The most beautiful view of the cathedral is from the pedestrian bridge across Nemiga Street.

A pleasant atmosphere inside the temple, many icons of ancient writing. The painting has not been restored yet. It is clear that the temple suffered during the persecution of the church. But people are trying to rebuild. The miraculous icon is an Inexhaustible Chalice. A wonderful priest in confession. There is a very pretentious woman on the candle box. It is intended to be a place for prayer. During the Liturgy, the general conciliar singing (parishioners sing). This greatly interferes with prayer. It's a well-known fact that when you sing, you never pray. Otherwise, everything is fine.
