I did a lot of research to write this review. I placed th fruit of that research in the captions of the photos I took. Hopefully they may serve the reader in appreciating this beautiful expression of God's love for us and our love for God. If you are going to photograph the church, you will be fighting low light. But I hope you enjoy it just as much as we did. Light a candle. Pray 3 Hail Maries and make 3 wishes. I did. They were all for my son.
There are so many churches in Lviv that it is easy to get them mixed up. So, as I said in another review, hire a guide.
This church like many during the Soviet Union was used as a warehouse. Currently the church is undergoing massive restoration. The interior is spectacular and luckily did not suffer insurmountable damage. Unique among many churches in Lviv since its architect was Italian.
One of the most beautiful churches in Lviv. I had very inspiring half of an hour when I prayed here. Come for sure.
Very beautiful inside. Look at the sculptures on the walls, they are very, very beautiful. But it is not the place to spend much time. 10-15 minutes and minute to take photo
They have just finished the reconstruction and now you may see all the beauty of this old church. Come here for liturgy, it is worthwile.
This church was reopened after long time of being book storage. Everything is rennovated now and the place inside is shining by the beauty. Located in the center, on the crissing of Shevska and Teatralna streets. Hotel Leopolis, Chocolate store and Strudel Haus are near - all very good places to vizit
Thisplace is a miracle! With its wonderful paintings on the walls, masterpiece sculptures and long and interesting history - it is one of the must see attractions in Lviv. Moreover it is located in the very centre of the city.
Не очень красивый внешне, этот храм просто прекрасен внутри. Хорошенько рассмотритесь, много деталей, росписей и скульптуры. В этом храме прощаются с погибшими на востоке солдатами.
Очень красивый старинный костел. Частично реставрированный после войны (со времен Советской власти в нем было книгохранилище). Даже имеется (неработающий) не отреставрированный орган. Больше всего поражает богатое убранство костела, витражей и несколько необычных икон, особенно статуя Иисуса Христа. Поистине место для успокоения души и размышлений о жизни. Этому способствуют большие ряды скамеечек и постоянно играющая в аудио-записи классическая музыка. Понравилось еще то, что свечки и молебенные записки не имеют фиксированной цены. Каждый посетитель может положить ту жертву, которую считает возможным для себя. Это сильно отличает костел от православных церквей. Заходите - не пожалеете, получите умиротворение как минимум на несколько часов. )
