St. Sophia  Cathedral  suffered the destiny  of   many  structures of  Old Rus. It was ruined in 13 century  during the Tatar  invasion  and  underwent  wars  and  religious strife of many times.

Metrpolitan  Petro  Mohyla  restored the cathedral in 1633. During 17 – 18 centuries the cathedral acquired the architectural aspect which has come down to us . During this time an ensemble  of   buildings in  the style of Ukrainian  baroque  was created around  the cathedral.

The ancient  mosaic  decorations of  the  cathedral, which ornament  the principle  altar, the central dome  and  the  arches  are  of  unique  value  from the scientific  and artistic  points  of   view.

The arch of  mosaic  inlay  work was widespread  in Byzantium and further  developed in Kyiv. The artists of  11 century  created remarkable  pictures.

Most of  the ancient  frescos were covered  with latter  oil  paintings. As a result  of  research work  the original  frescos  were discovered.

The portraists  of  the  members  of the family  of   Yaroslav the Wise: his wife Iryna  and three  daughters  - Anna, Yelyzaveta, and Anastasia  are  of  considerable  interest too.Two  figures of   his young sons  have  been  preserved  on the opposite  wall of  the cathedral.

The image  of  Yaroslav   the Wise  painted  on   the western  hall  unfortunaly  has  not  been  preserved. T he  frescos of   the  two  starcase  towers depict  the life  of  Old Rus.

Also worthy  of  attention  are  the  bronze   gilded  doors  in the  western  wall  with  ornament  of   17  century  and the  filigree  carved   iconostsis  of  18 century.
