The cemetery of the XVI century, turned into a memorial museum-reserve. There is a version that back in the Middle Ages people who died from the plague epidemic were buried in this place. The necropolis consists of several parts - the oldest graves, the cemetery of the defenders of Lviv, the rebel quarter, the graves of the victims of the NKVD, the pantheon of prominent Poles and others.

I like to visit Lychakiv cemetery.
It is the history of Lviv and Europe, a place of numerous architectural masterpieces and a good place to think, to listen to silence and to comunicate with it.
Lychakiv cemetery is a great museum too.

Great "ZEN" place. Very peaceful to walk - I especially suggest to do it in summer on a work day closer to the closing times, less people to see, so you are almost on your own to wander and observe monuments and discover interesting things.

Absolutely mesmerizing place. Was so pleased to see how the history is respected. And how respected are those who laid their lives for Ukraine.

Didn’t expect to like this place as much as we did. Took in a lot of history and knowledge of the people and events that occurred in Lviv.

Since the 1500s, Lviv’s most prominent figures have been laid to rest at this 40-hectare cemetery that has now been recognised as a national reserve.
Lychakiv Cemetery is the equivalent to Père Lachaise or Highgate and is treasured not .. Read more »just for its prestigious burials but the quality of the art that commemorates them.
Laid to rest here are Polish and Ukrainian members of the clergy, politicians, military leaders, scientists, architects (like Zygmunt Gorgolewski), soloists, aviators, surgeons and painters.
For Poles the cemetery is poignant as the burial place of the Lwów Eaglets, young militia members who were killed during the Polish-Ukrainian War in 1918-1919.

What a beautiful place to reflect and wonder. I came here on a late summer day and didn’t regret it a single time. The way to arrive there through the medicine faculties is actually also quite beautiful. Unmissable experience for Lviv!
