St. George's Cathedral is a Greek Catholic 18th-century cathedral with rococo yellow facade, housing an icon of the Virgin Mary. During 19th and 20th centuries, the cathedral served as the mother church of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. The cathedral reflects both Western influences and the traditions of Ukrainian church construction. She's a beauty- don't miss this opportunity!

The Armenian Cathedral in Lviv was built in 1363-1370. By the way, it was the first cathedral in the city of Lviv, for the Ruthenian Metropolitanate (and cathedral) was located in the tawn of Halych and the Roman Catholic Metropolitanate with the see in Lviv was founded later (first source based information about the building of the Latin cathedral comes from 1399). From the time of its construction there is only one fresco in the Armenian cathedral (of the st. Apostle Judas Thaddaeus) in the niche in the altar part (to your right, when you look towards the main altar), which preserved because for many centuries ist was covered up by a side altar or something like that. Only by the restauration in the 20th century the side altar has been removed and the old fresco behind it discovered. Another interesting thing is a depiction of the 12 Astrological signs, represented in the arcade in the form of corresponding constellations. Very interesting for me was also the representation of the senses, showed in the form of allegorical figures. And a special detail: there are not 5, but 6 senses depicted there, it means that the intuition is added as the 6th one (greetings to all, who like stories about persons with the extrasensory perception). There are also many other interesting and creepy images there, like the figures of the spirits, who follow the burial procession, and so on (all the fans of the Supernatural series will love it).

passing by there regularly - never stopped - because of this difficult time we had the pleasure on sunday morning to be the only visitors - and this was a real great experience - the museum is very well organised, shows a lot of city history, as an old Habsburg town, and offers as final a nice beer tasting with very nice bar tender ! Just to recommend !

Elegantly and tasteful Baroque compared to the excesses of other cathedrals in the city. Most of it is also roped off compared to the other cathedrals so just a quick visit.

Not the easiest place to find but memorable when you do get there. There was a really helpful, informative English speaking guide available when I arrived and she showed us around the prison. She supplied the historical background to give context to the building and the grimness of its history. A must visit place if you have any interest in Ukrainian history.
