The Church of the Archangel Michael in Chernihiv (Ukrainian: Свято-Михайлівський храм (Чернігів)) is a functioning church in the city of Chernihiv, located on the corner of Myru Avenue and Kozatska (formerly 50 years of the Komsomol) and Boyova (Heroes of Chornobyl) streets. The parish belongs to the Chernihiv Diocese [uk] of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate).

This neighborhood of Chernihiv is densely populated, with many Orthodox residents, but there was no church or spiritual and educational center. This was the main reason why this place was chosen for construction. Construction of the church began in 2001, a year later it was consecrated (2002). In 2011, construction was almost completed.

A significant material contribution to its construction was made by OJSC Chernihivoblenergo [uk] in the person of the chairman of the Board Yuriy Mykhailovych Lisnyak. For this charitable activity the church awarded Yu. M. Lisnyak the Order of the Apostolic Grand Duke Volodymyr [uk] of the third degree. He is the head of the community.

The church is named after Archangel Michael. Archangel Michael has been glorified in Kievan Rus' since ancient times. Churches and monasteries were built in his honor throughout Russia. The Archangel Cathedral was built in ancient Kyiv immediately after the adoption of Christianity. St. Michael the Archangel is considered by the people to be the heavenly patron and defender of Kyiv.

The architecture of the Church of St. Michael the Archangel is, to some extent, unique: it is a round (rotunda) church. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem also has the shape of a rotunda with a dome. The church was designed by Kyiv architect Oleg Sleptsov. The design was altered during the construction process at the request of the church community. The bell tower, as well as the landscaping, was designed by Chernihiv architect Viktor Ustinov [uk].

The main decoration of the church is a 3-tiered iconostasis. The project of the iconostasis, as well as the carving was executed by Oleksiy Korets. He also made carved kiosks for icons. Everything is done in a single style. In the center of the iconostasis is the royal doors, which rises to the height of two tiers. They depict four evangelists and the composition "Annunciation". The carving is gilded.
