Armenian Cathedral of Lviv

There has been an Armenian community in Lviv since the 13th century, and it’s around 1,000-strong today after immigration during the Soviet Union. As the oldest church in the city, the Armenian Cathedral was founded in the 1360s. The church has seen a few changes due to fire, but the Byzantine layout and khachkars (engravings of Armenian crosses) in the apse on the eastern side of the temple are from the earliest period. The southern section of the arcaded courtyard outside is also historic and dates to the 15th century. In the 1900s the church’s interior walls were painted with bold Art Nouveau frescoes by the Polish artists Józef Mehoffer and Jan Henryk de Rosen

Worth visiting. Very authentic ambience.

Very big and beautiful cathedral located in the heart of the old town, at the Armenian street. One of the oldest buildings in the Lviv Also there is a painting of Parajanov on the one of the walls of it

It is the most warm and religious place, you can feel yourself really near God. The priest kindly explains and serves the pray .
