This is an automatically translated description

This monograph is a scientific study of Jewish architectural monuments in Lviv from the sixteenth century to 1939. It is created in the form of a scientific description and analysis of a catalogued and systematised array of 440 recorded architectural works. The selectivity of the 440 objects under consideration is substantiated by the scientific basis of the study, which uses most of the available archival, literary, and electronic sources, which is a representative selection of Jewish architectural heritage.

The monograph is structured into five blocks, according to the historical functional purpose of the buildings, with their numbering through. The obligatory name, address (then and now), time of construction, ownership, architect, historical stages of construction and current state are accompanied by stylistic and art historical analysis, as well as information about institutions and famous personalities associated with a particular building. The book concludes with a biographical dictionary of Lviv Jewish architects and builders with a detailed bibliography, a name index, and an English-language annotation.
