Museum sights in Lviv

  1. A

    Apteka Museum

    The Apteka Museum is located inside a still-functioning pharmacy dating from 1735. Entrance into the eerie pidval (basement) is by request only. You can buy a bottle of iron-rich medicinal wine, if you can bear the temporary tooth discolouration. Ask for ‘ vino ’.

  2. B

    Museum of Folk Architecture and Life

    The open-air Museum of Folk Architecture and Life displays different regional styles of farmsteads, windmills, churches and schools. It doesn’t hold a candle to Kyiv’s Pyrohovo Museum, but it’s worth checking out if you’re not heading to Kyiv.

    Lvivske Museum of Beer and Brewing

    The oldest still-functioning brewery in Europe turns 300 in 2015, and a tasting tour through the mainly underground facilities is well worth the price of admission. One old storage vault has been turned into a unique beer hall.
