Church of the Holy Trinity, Lviv, Baroque church in central Lviv, Ukraine

The Church of the Holy Trinity features French classicism architecture with a grand Baroque interior decoration and multiple stained-glass windows depicting Ruthenian saints.

The structure, built between 1703 and 1731 for the Trinitarian Order, underwent reconstruction after artillery damage during the 1848 Spring of Nations.

The church transformed from Roman Catholic to Greek Catholic jurisdiction in 1906 under Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky, becoming central to Ukrainian national identity.

The church interior contains numerous artworks, including sculptures and paintings by Kornylo Ustiyanovych and Tadeusz Popiel, created in the late 19th century.

After serving as a university library in 1783, the church returned to religious use and became among the first parishes restored in 1989 after Soviet rule.
