Church of St. Michael the Archangel, Carmelite Church
Ukraine, Lviv
The Barefoot Carmelite Church was first mentioned in 1634, it was a defensive complex. The towers of the main facade were designed in 1835-1839, and completed only in 1906 during the restoration by the architect V. Galitsky. The three-nave church is made of stone and covered with vaults. Adjacent to the church is a building with an inner courtyard, which serves as a monastery cell. The baroque interior was decorated in 1731-1732 by the Italian painter G.C. Pedretti, the main altar is made of black marble.

To get to the temple, you need to overcome a rather big staircase, and it is located "on the edge" from the center, not every tourist will come here. Neither outside nor inside it impresses with grandeur, size or luxury. I rarely ask about the history of a temple before visiting it. I have my own evaluation criteria, and the information makes them less "accurate". But I give this church the highest score in Lviv, along with the Armenian Church. I can’t find the right words, but it’s really very good.
