Lviv House of Scientists used to be an aristocratic casino (in the 1920s-1930s) and a club of horse-breeding industrialists (before 1918).
The House is an architectural monument located in the city center. The authors of the project were well-reputed Viennese architects H. Helmer and F. Felner (they were
