About this cemetery
Yaniv Cemetery in Lviv was opened in 1883 on what was then Yanivska Street, now Shevchenko Street, where its main entrance remains. It lies on the south-western slope of Kortumivka hill, reaching 370 metres above sea level at its highest point, on the edge of the historic Klepariv district. It holds many military and civilian burials from the First and Second World Wars, and a German soldiers' cemetery adjoins its western edge.
