Friends, today I will show you the place that impressed me the most in Lviv

I visited the Archcathedral Cathedral of St. George several times and was always struck by the grandeur of the place, you just stand and look. A place with history. For those who are interested, please read on. Better yet, visit

Memories of this Monsieur date back to the fourteenth century

But initially a wooden Orthodox church was erected here, and only in the eighteenth century this building was erected

I got there in clear, calm weather, and caught the service. Just a few minutes, about half an hour, just stood and contemplated

❗️ St. George's Cathedral, built in 1744-1770, is a classic example of Baroque architecture. Construction began in 1744 according to the design of Bernard Meretin, after whose death the work was supervised by S. Fesinger (until 1764)

Finishing work completed in 1772. On the façade are sculptures by Johann Pinsel; the interior was decorated by sculptors S. Fesinger and M. Filevich, artists L. Dolinsky and Yu. Radivilovsky

A lot of different films were also filmed here, but in this case, believe me, this is not so important. A place just for inspiration and awareness of the greatness of faith
