"Ghosts of the Shtetls" Route (2 Days)

The "Ghosts of the Shtetls" Route is a 2-day journey through northern Lviv Oblast, introducing travelers to the region's rich Jewish heritage. The route passes through towns and small settlements where Jewish communities played a vital role in trade, crafts, religious life, and local society for centuries.

Today, these places are rediscovering their history and bringing little-known stories of the past back to life. The route invites visitors to explore the former shtetls, experience the region's multicultural heritage, and gain a deeper understanding of the history of modern-day Lviv Oblast.
