The four-storied building at the corner of Valova, Pidvalna, and Brativ Rohatyntsiv streets was built in 1910–1912 under a project designed by architect Karel Boublík. It was a residential building owned by merchant Maurycy Sprecher and Dr Max Sprecher. Formally, it consists of two parts having different addresses (Pidvalna street 3 and Valova street 31), but visually it is perceived as a single two-part house. It is an architectural monument of local importance (protection number 216). In its décor, Historicist motifs are used combining elements of the Neo-Renaissance, Neo-Gothic and Secession styles. In the interwar period the house on Pidvalna street 3 was owned by the Jewish publishing union "Chwila". Now both parts of the building are occupied by offices.

Former St. John the Baptist Roman Catholic Church (currently houses the Museum of Historic Artifacts of Lviv, a branch of the Lviv Art Gallery) is an architectural monument that was built in the earliest period of Lviv's history. The church was built at the foot of Castle Mountain, on its western slope. The main dates of construction and later reconstruction are the end of the thirteenth century, the middle of the fourteenth century, the seventeenth-eighteenth centuries, 1836 (restoration), 1887 (reconstruction by the architect Julian Zachariewicz), and 1989 (restoration with partial reconstruction).
