Armenian Catholic Archeparchy of Lviv, Catholic Archieparchy in Lviv, Ukraine
The Armenian Catholic Archeparchy occupies a central position in Lviv, with its administrative headquarters located at Ploscha Sviatoho Jura 5 street.
Established in 1630 when Archbishop Mikołaj Torosowicz made a Catholic profession of faith, Pope Urban VIII confirmed the union by creating the Archeparchy.
The Archeparchy serves Armenian Catholic followers across Lviv, maintaining religious practices and traditions through 317 active parishes in the region.
The ecclesiastical jurisdiction extends over 3,767 square kilometers, covering the districts of Zoločiv, Pustomyty, Javoriv, and the city of Lviv.
The institution maintained independence by not recognizing the Union of Brest in 1596, later establishing full communion with the Catholic Church in 1700.
