The former Clarisse Order Convent (presently the Museum of J. H. Pinsel, a branch of the Lviv Art Gallery). The Clarisse Order Convent is the most noticeable feature of the lower part of Lychakivska Street. It was constructed in 1607 (by the architect P. Rymlianyn), and its interior was fixed up in the 1760’s. Over the course of 1938-1939, restoration with partial reconstruction (by the architect Y. Lobos) was conducted. As a result, the church’s architecture demonstrates a combination of Renaissance, Baroque and Art Deco forms.

The history of this building plot is closely linked to the Pillers’ print shop, which was known in the Austrian Empire, and the pharmacy of Antoni Ehrbar. The house still has three floors and there is a pharmacy, now that of mother and child; to the right of the gate, in the cellar, the Johnny Rocker café and the Zolotyi Fazan (Golden Pheasant) shop are arranged. It is an architectural monument of local significance (no. 617).
