Why pilgrims come
Enter a place shaped by prayer, community, and pilgrimage
A living Studite monastery of the UGCC and destination of the revived Lviv-to-Univ walking pilgrimage. Pilgrims pray before the Univ Marian icon and at the spring; commemorations of Blessed Klymentiy Sheptytsky reflect Studite renewal, but the lavra is not identified here as his tomb.
Understand Univ as lived monasticism: Divine Liturgy, Studite hospitality, the Marian icon and spring, and a walking pilgrimage renewed after suppression.
