The St. Andrew's Church (Ukrainian: Андрiївська церква, or the Cathedral of St. Andrew) was built in Kyiv in 1747–1754, according to a design by the Italian architect Bartolomeo Rastrelli in the Baroque style.

Overlooking the historical Podil district from a steep hill to which the church gave its current name (Andriivska Mount, former Uzdykhalnytsia) this exuberant and colourful structure is one of the city's best known landmarks.
