Cathedral of the Holy Name of Saint Virgin Mary
Cathedral of the Holy Name of Mary (Belarusian: Архікатэдральны касцёл Найсвяцейшага Імя Найсвяцейшай Панны Марыі, Polish: Archikatedra Najświętszego Imienia Najświętszej Maryi Panny, Archikatedralny kascioł  Imia Najsviaciejšaj  Panny Maryi) is a Roman Catholic baroque cathedral in Minsk. It is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Minsk-Mohilev. It was built under the Polish rule in 1710 as a church for the Jesuit house. In 1793, after the Russian conquest of Belarusian part of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Jesuit order was banned and the church got a local status. Soon, after creation of the Minsk diocese, the church became the local cathedral.
