About this cemetery

Lychakiv Cemetery in Lviv has existed since 1786, after the Austrian authorities banned burials at the old cemeteries that surrounded the city's churches. It was one of four cemeteries in Lviv, the other three of which no longer exist. It occupies the Lychakiv plateau near Mechnikov Street and today operates as a historical and cultural museum-reserve. You can reach the cemetery on +380 322 755 415 or through lychakivcemetery.org.
