Description
The Carmelite Convent was established in Lviv by Jakub Sobieski. Many particulars of its design decorative vases, Andreas Schwaner`s statues were patterned after the Roman church of Santa Susanna. Its construction, commenced in 1642, was greatly delayed by the events of the Deluge. The Carmelites departed from the nunnery in 1792. It was later used as a metrology office. The Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church recently reconsecrated the church to Christian worship and dedicated it to the Presentation of Our Lord.
