Gorgeous permanent exhibition is moved away during war. Temporal one is about dresses embroided with typical but great ornaments from Western Ukraine. Anyway, the ticket was quite cheap - only few euros, and the museum building
in renaissance style.. Read more » is worth of being visited.

Low grade for museum workers, who treat visitors like trash. Exposition is good though, but old-fasioned; mainly old church-related art. The building itself is quite an attraction

Rude staff & weird policy toward visitors.
Got very mixed feelings visiting this museum. My wife and i came to Lviv for the annual Book Forum and decided to visit some local museums as well.
The lady in the ticket box was quite friendly and sugge.. Read more »sted we buy the "all access" ticket, which will include all exhibits.
Once we were done with the religious art exhibit on the first floor we went upstairs to see the top floor exhibition spaces, but the central area of the museum was taken by some pop-up exhibition and it seems like there was some private event underway, like a tour or lecture. The ladies, who we think were hosting this event (they didn't have any id or uniform on) seemed to be very unhappy with us, regular visitors at first trying to cross the hall and later opening and closing heavy wooden doors of exhibit rooms as this was tempering with their lecture. We didn't catch their remarks, but they were definitely not customer friendly reminders. We bumped into them a couple of times, as the group was moving all over the central common area of the museum. Sadly, the attitude of those ladies towards us was very upsetting.
The collection of the museum itself is quite interesting, though. The fine arts section is quite modest. The religious art section is very impressive and totally worth visiting.

Historic museum of Ukrainian religious art, much of it very impressive even to a non-believer. Small section of 18th-20th secular Ukrainian art. More of that would be interesting. Lovely purpose built early 20th museum. A café and a shop would.. Read more » compliment.

Good! It is very good for you on this site and then there are two floors. You can potentially see the actual theatre inside. Both inside and outside are pretty.
