Reviews and Ratings
Write a reviewЛычаковское кладбище принято считать одной из самых популярных львовских достопримечательностей. Если оказались здесь впервые, мой совет – отправляйтесь на осмотр без экскурсовода. Так можно не спеша прогуляться вдоль дорожек и полюбоваться склепами и памятниками, многие из которых впечатляют своей величественностью и причудливостью. Если все-таки хотите больше узнать об этом месте, тогда можно присоединиться к ночной экскурсии, в ходе которой услышите немало интересных и пугающих историй о кладбище.

Дуже цікаве місце з особливою атмосферою
