Dominican Church, Baroque church in Old Town, Lviv, Ukraine.
The Dominican Church features an elliptical dome, paired columns on the facade, and rectangular windows complemented by round stained glass installations.
The structure, built between 1749 and 1764 under architect Jan de Witte, replaced earlier Gothic and wooden churches that existed since the 13th century.
The building transitioned from a Roman Catholic church to a Soviet museum of atheism, and now functions as a Greek Catholic parish church.
Located east of Market Square, the church maintains regular visiting hours and serves as a center for religious ceremonies and cultural events.
The church contains architectural elements brought from other locations, including an alabaster figure transferred from Kiev during the Mongol period.
