5 Drahomanova Street, Lviv, Academic library in Lviv, Ukraine

The three-story scientific library building features plastered brick walls, Tuscan columns at the entrance portal, and four caryatids supporting Ionic semicolumns on the right facade.

Established in 1608, the library underwent architectural transformation between 1901 and 1904 when architect Hryhoriy Pezhanskyi designed the current Neo-Renaissance structure at Drahomanova Street.

The main reading hall preserves the original bookshelves and contains murals painted by Julian Makarewicz, reflecting the educational heritage of Lviv Ivan Franko National University.

The library maintains extensive collections of books, manuscripts, periodicals, and digital resources while providing electronic databases and online catalogs for academic research.

The building's rear section faces the university botanical garden, while its neighbors include the former Trinitarian monastery and St Nicholas Church.
