🇺🇦 Lviv. Avenue of Freedom or Prospekt Svobody in Ukrainian, virtual walking tour. [4K]

Freedom Avenue (Avenue of Freedom or Prospekt Svobody in Ukrainian) is a major thoroughfare in Lviv, a city in western Ukraine. It is one of the city’s most famous and historic streets, stretching for about 1.2 km from the Old Town to the Lviv Opera House.

Originally named Emperor Franz Joseph Street, it was built in the late 19th century during the period of Austro-Hungarian rule in Lviv. The street was designed in the style of a Viennese Ringstrasse and was intended to be a grand boulevard to showcase the city’s cultural and commercial importance.

After the end of World War I and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the street was renamed Liberty Avenue in honor of the newly independent state of Poland. In 1939, following the Soviet occupation of Lviv, the street was renamed again as Lenin Avenue. After Ukraine gained independence in 1991, the street was renamed to its current name, Avenue of Freedom.

Today, Freedom Avenue is a lively pedestrian street, lined with cafes, restaurants, shops, and historic buildings, including the neo-Renaissance Lviv National Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet and the Art Nouveau-style Dnister Hotel. The street is also a popular destination for cultural events and celebrations, such as the Lviv City Day festival and the annual Lviv International Jazz Festival.
