St. Michael the Archangel Church is a historic Russian Orthodox church in Cordova, Alaska.
It is a rectangular wood frame structure with a moderately pitched roof, and a small entrance vestibule whose roof echoes the main roof line. The exterior is largely unadorned, owing to frequent windy conditions in the area. It was built in 1925 and has a modest appearance, in the generally simple style of the earlier Russian Orthodox church at Belkofski. The church interior was completely rebuilt and modernized in the 1970s.
The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
