This place is difficult to call a classic museum. However, for the history and culture of the cemetery is of great value. Founded at the end of the 18th century, Lychakivsky is one of the most majestic necropolises of Europe.
Here buried rich, well-known, notable persons who made a significant contribution to the development of art and science. On the territory of 40 hectares are more than 3,5 thousand monuments, made by famous architects and sculptors - Abel Perier, Leonardo Marconi, Grigory Kuznevich and others.
Such famous writers and composers as Ivan Franko, Irina Vilde, Stepan Tudor, Stanislav Lyudkevich, Igor Bilozir and others are buried at Lychakiv Cemetery. For more than 20 years the cemetery has been working as a museum-preserve.
