One of the most beautiful cities in Europe with many cultures and nationalities enriching each other.

The city's main attraction is the architectural marvel of Chernivtsi University. This former complex of buildings of the residence of Orthodox metropolitans of Bukovyna and Dalmatia (1864-1882), is now listed as a world heritage site by UNESCO. The complex of buildings combines Mauritania, Byzantine, Roman, and Hutsul styles. Genius architect J. Hlavka has integrated a variety of styles to create these beautiful structures.

You will be enchanted by the City tower (1848) and Theatre (1905). You will also see ‘Star Alley’, featuring Bukovyna Art Masters on the sidewalk leading to the theatre. The so-called “Drunk Church” (1939) is really worth admiring because there are no similar churches in Ukraine. You can also see here the inspiring sea-themed Ship House (19th century) will certainly inspire you to travel.

Chernivtsi offers many interesting and exciting places for every guest.
