Lviv (Ukrainian: Львів L’viv, IPA: [lʲwiu̯] ; Polish: Lwów, IPA: [lvuf] ; German: Lemberg; Yiddish: Lemberg – לעמבערג or Lemberik – לעמבעריק; Russian: Львов, L'vov; see also other names) is a city in western Ukraine. Capital of the historical region of Galicia, Lviv is now regarded as one of the main cultural centres of today's Ukraine. The historical heart of Lviv with its old buildings and cobblestone roads has survived World War II and ensuing Nazi and Soviet occupation largely unscathed. The city has many industries and institutions of higher education such as Lviv University and Lviv Polytechnic. Lviv is also a home to many world-class cultural institutions, including a philharmonic orchestra and the famous Lviv Theatre of Opera and Ballet. The historic city centre is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Lviv celebrated its 750th anniversary with a son et lumière in the city centre in September 2006.
