St. Michael's Cathedral is a rare example of a rotunda church in the Catholic architecture of Belarus. It was built as the church of the Piarist monastery in Lida, between 1797 and 1825, and was dedicated to St. Joseph. The monastery was closed in 1832 and the church burnt down in 1842. In 1863 it was converted into an Orthodox church and dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel. After the Second World War, the building was converted into a planetarium and did not return to its original use until after independence.
The Iwye Mosque is a monument of wooden architecture built in 1884. A minaret and a gallery were made with the money of Tatar emigrants from the United States in 1922.
