We report the discovery by INTEGRAL of a new hard X-ray source, IGR J00234+6141. This source was detected accumulating data from different observations in December 2003 and February 2004 resulting in a 1.6-Ms exposure targeting the Cassiopeia region. The source is weak with a flux of 1.20 +/- 0.15 mCrab and a detection significance of 8 sigma in the energy band 20-30 keV of IBIS/ISGRI. Also in the 30-40 keV band the source is seen, at a 3.8-sigma level with flux 0.8 +/- 0.2 mCrab.
