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

Very nice old Armenian Orthodox Church with both beautiful exteriors and interiors. It is located in the heart of Old Town and is s perfect place for a walk, taking a picture or two and/or just sitting down inside to contemplate about life. I highly recommend it as a must see point of interest while in that city.

Stunning. Absolutely unique climate, totally different than in all the other L'viv churches. My visit was additionally coloured by a priest chanting somewhere behind a door. Very beautiful sacred place with a completely inconspicuous entrance. You can also enter the church's backstreet, but from the Virmen'ska street, not Krakivska street.

A very beautiful and a characteristic Armenian Church which shows the cultural diversity in Lviv. Entrance is free and also there is a very picturesque yard behind the church.
