“The St. George's Cathedral is also a rightful UNESCO Heritage List item as the Church of St. George. The place where the ascent begins is a site of historical and architectural significance. That is, there can be no construction. There could be a park, including a playground,” Lviv’s chief architect Yulian Chaplinsky said.
