The Pokrovsky Nunnery (Ukrainian: Покровський жіночий монастир, romanized: Pokrovskyi zhinochyi monastyr) in Kyiv, Ukraine, known in full as the Nunnery of the Protection of the Mother of God, is a religious complex, including the Cathedral of St. Nicholas, under the control of the Kyiv Eparchy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate.

In 1888, she bought a plot of land near Voznessenskaya Hill, and there, with permission from Metropolitan Platon of Kiev, she founded a nunnery.

In 1897, there was a typhus epidemic in Kiev, and Grand Duchess Alexandra established another hospital, where she herself helped to nurse patients.

However, the cathedral was not completed, as the outbreak of the First World War in 1914 prevented the planned decorations from being provided inside it.

The nuns had an outpatient clinic, and its doctors issued many false certificates of diseases to save local people from deportation to forced labour.
