Abstract

To date, in the popularisation of knowledge and in research into the history of the Church of the Bernardine Fathers in Lviv, much attention is paid to the general history and artistic qualities of the monument. In the case of epitaphs and memorial plaques, attention is paid primarily to their state of preservation and appearance, while information on the circumstances of their creation and foundation is omitted. This article fills this gap and, on the basis of the surviving archival documentation, brings closer the circumstances of their erection, the names of the founders and the characteristics of the documentation with regard to epitaphs and plaques made in the 19th and 20th centuries. So far, this aspect and the documents have not been analysed and published.
