The transport problem of the market squares regeneration in the historic towns and cities of Galicia Section 1. Architecture Kaplinska Mariana, Lviv Polytechnic National University PhD Student, Institute of Architecture Department of Architectural and Artistic Heritage Restoration E-mail: [email protected] The transport problem of the market squares regeneration in the historic towns and cities of Galicia Abstract: The transport problem of the market squares regeneration in the historic towns of Galicia is examined in the paper as it’s the problem that arises in the earliest stages of the designing their architectural and urban environment. The development of transport systems is one of the most important urban factors and must be taken into account and adjusted for the purpose of the towns and cities architectural and urban heritage preservation. Keywords: transport, market squares, historic towns and cities, Galicia, regeneration, heritage, pedestrian zone. The towns of Galicia differ in terms of population, ter- studied cities trolley buses (Ivano-Frankivsk, Lviv, Ter- ritory, levels of economic and cultural development, the nopil) and trams work. Nowadays trams work only in place and role in the settlement system and consequently Lviv (one of the routes is crossing the market square of the level of transport systems organization in general, along its southern side).

  • Dnister Floating the Dnister River (7 Days) Floating the Dnister River Is
    Dnister Floating the Dnister river (7 days) Floating the Dnister river is one of the most interesting journeys which is not less impressive than tours around such famous regions as the Carpathians or Crimea. These routes are absolutely unique due to the picturesque landscapes. The steep rocky or woody 200m- high banks, the unique travertine rocks and geological outcrops, caves and grottoes with the traces of human settlements, waterfalls, beautiful islands, monuments of nature, history, architecture, ethnography – all these we watch, visit and most importantly – have an active rest. The warm climate at the canyon makes this area different from the others in the Western Ukraine. The canyon walls keep the solar heat so the rains are very rare here in summer and the spring blossom starts 2 or 3 weeks earlier in spring. There are a lot of rare animals, birds and plants on the slopes of the Dnister. The route goes along the border of several regions which causes a kind of remoteness from civilization and thus – the complete relaxation. April – September Program Day 1 Meeting in Ternopil. Journey from Ternopil to Dnister. Rukomysh (a travertine rock with the cave church of St. Onuphrius, the Stations of the Cross, St. Onuphrius figure performed by the outstanding sculptor Pinsel). Buchach - the historic-architectural complex of a town: the 14th-century castle, the 18th-century City Hall (Ratusha) and the Monastery of Fathers Vasylian, the 17th-century St. Nicholas Church, Assumption Cathedral, the Church of Exaltation (Khrestovozdvyzhenska) and Pokrovska Church. Arrival to Nyzhniv. Starting floating the Dnister river – a trip on tourist catamarans in the canyon of the river (instruction on water safety techniques, training, floating).

  • Appendices I
    Appendices I. Archival Sources Archival research for this monograph was conducted in Lviv, the former capital of Galicia, in 1983. To orient myself in the rich archival holdings of this city, I benefitted from the unpublished manuscript of Patricia K. Grimsted's forthcoming guide to Soviet Ukrainian archives and manuscript repositories' as well as from a number of published works.' Plans to use archives in Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk were frustrated, as was the plan to use the manuscript collection of the Institute of Literature of the Academy of Sciences of the Ukrainian SSR (in Kiev). Work in the Austrian archives in 1982 did not uncover sources of direct relevance to the subject of this monograph, but the Viennese archives remain an important and little-explored repository of historical documentation on Galician history. The richest collection of unpublished sources on the history of Galicia during the Austrian period is located in the Central State Historical Archives of the Ukrainian SSR in Lviv (U Tsentrainyi derzhavnyi istorychnyi arkhiv URSR u rn. Lvovi; abbre- viated as TsDIAL). The Central Archives have inherited the papers of various Galician government institutions and major civic organizations. Unfortunately, there is no published guide to these archives, although a number of articles describe aspects of their holdings.' The papers of the Presidium of the Galician Viceroy's Office (U Haiytske narnisnytstvo, rn. Lviv. Prezydiia) are contained in TsDIAL, fond 146, opysy 4-8 (and presumably others). Particularly valuable for this study were documents dealing with the publication and confiscation of political brochures and periodicals, including , Patricia K.

As a result, the Polish Eastern border also became an external border of the EU. European Neighbourhood Policy instruments were made available to develop cross-border cooperation with the Eastern neighbours based on common values and goals. Building a zone of sustainable development whilst maintaining cultural diversity and tolerance became a joint priority for the border regions of Poland, Belarus and Ukraine. The border regions gained a great opportunity to strengthen their cooperation through the realisation of com- mon projects within the ENPI CBC Programme Poland-Bela- rus-Ukraine 2007-2013. I am proud to present a series of publications reflecting how the regions from the eligible area of the Programme ap- proached cross-border cooperation and what specific pro- jects are being implemented on their territories to improve development processes.
