Church of John the Baptist, Lviv, Gothic church near Old Market, Lviv, Ukraine
The brick church features tall windows with pointed arches, narrow buttresses along its walls, and a stone belfry near the entrance point.
Hungarian Princess Constance, wife of Prince Lev Danilovich, initiated the construction of this church in the late 13th century with Dominican monks.
The church functions as both an active religious center and an exhibition space within the Museum of the Lviv Oldest Monuments collection.
The church maintains regular worship services and welcomes visitors to explore its architectural elements dating from different construction periods.
After a fire in 1800, the church underwent a forty-year restoration that transformed its appearance to include neo-Romanesque architectural elements.
