Domini Canes
The city of Lviv.
Built in 1764.
Architect – Jan de Witte.
Current state – neglected.
It stands on the site of the palace of the King Leo I of Galicia.
Heritage-listed building of national importance.
Prior to WW II – the temple of the Roman Catholic monastery of the Dominican Order. During the Soviet times, warehouses were set up in the church and the monastic cells, and since 1973 the building was used to house the History of Religion and Atheism Museum.
In the 1990s, the Temple was transferred to the UGCC and consecrated in honor of the Most Holy Eucharist.
As of 2010, a part of the building with the monastic cells is occupied by the “Dzyga” art association (in particular, the gallery of the same name, as well as the “Kvartyra 35” art cafe, the “Pid Clepsydroyu” cafe and the “Lviv Candle Manufactory” cafe), and as for the Lviv History of Religion Museum (formerly the History of Religion and Atheism Museum), it still remains in another part of the building of the monastic cells as well as in the bell tower..

St Andrew’s Church
The city of Kyiv
Built in 1762.
Architect – Francesco Bartolomeo Rastrelli.
Current state – post-Soviet “restauration”..
Part of the “Sophia of Kyiv” National Sanctuary. A single-domed temple with a five-domed completion has the shape of a cross (31.5-22.7 m) and in its corners there are decorative towers placed on massive pillars that function as counterforces. On the outside, the counterforces are decorated with pilasters and covered with three pairs of columns with capitals of the Corinthian order. With its mass, the church rests on a two-story stylobate with 8 rooms on each floor, the walls of which form the foundation of the church. 23,500 bricks and 28,970 pounds of nails were used on the construction of the church; 1590 books and 20 sheets of gold were spent on the gilding of the tops.
For now, there isn’t a single café on the Temple’s premises..
UPG: In the light of recent events, there is hope that there will be none. Maybe, it will even get restored..
