Lviv National Opera

The National Opera is a truly unique and outstanding landmark—undoubtedly my favorite spot in Lviv. The interior is even more breathtaking than the exterior. If you're visiting the city, I highly recommend touring the opera house or attending a performance to experience its magnificent music theatre firsthand.

The Lviv Opera House is one of the most beautiful and memorable places in the city. Located right in the center, it immediately catches your attention with its impressive architecture and elegant details. Inside, the atmosphere feels grand and historic, with ornate ceilings, soft lighting, and comfortable seating that make the experience special from the moment you walk in. The acoustics are excellent, allowing you to fully enjoy both opera and ballet performances. The performers are highly professional, and even if you’re not usually an opera fan, the quality of the production makes it easy to appreciate. Staff are polite and helpful, and the overall organization is well managed. Tickets are reasonably priced, which makes world-class performances accessible to visitors and locals alike. Even if you don’t attend a show, the building itself is worth seeing. The Lviv Opera House is truly a cultural gem and a highlight of any visit to the city.

The Lviv National Opera is stunning inside and out. Watching a performance there is a truly special experience great acoustics and excellent shows. A must visit in Lviv.

Grand and beautiful building located in the city's Halych district. The facade is a good representation of the performing arts hosted there and is considered one of the most magnificent opera houses in Europe. It is a prominent landmark, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a centrepiece of Lviv's historic Old City constructed between 1897 and 1900.

I've been here twice already; I don't know if I'll ever go back. But the theatre is incredible, and the orchestra is simply magnificent. This place is fantastic—words cannot describe it! I went to see Carmen and Madama Butterfly, and they were mesmerising! This building is incredible! The architecture is stunning, and the auditorium is magnificent. Highly recommended!

A beautiful and historic opera house, with an ornate marble interior, a classic theatre with balconies, and the only 'sloping' stage I have ever seen. They put on high quality operas, with very professional casts and costumes even in wartime. Of course almost all of them are in Ukrainian or Italian, but it's still worth a visit for the experience. The price is around 500-600 UAH for a seat in the 'stalls'. If it's a midweek performance you can usually get a ticket just before the show from the box office, no need to book online.

We just visited the place .. didn't enter inside. The place itself is very beautiful and calm right in the middle of road .. giving an extreme importance to the architecture. Captured a ton of photos on front of the building. With its majestic beauty behind . There are lots of places to sit and walk around. There are photographers who will take splendid photos for you to keep as a memory.

We were able to go in an watch auditions, but there were no shows the week we were there. It is beautiful. You can hear the singers several blocks away. Long before you see the building.
