FlexStep

At Saints Peter and Paul Church

Located in the heart of Lviv, the Saints Peter and Paul Garrison Church is a 15th-century architectural treasure and a spiritual center for the city’s residents. With an increasing number of visitors, including those with mobility challenges, the need for an accessibility solution became evident.

Preserving history while optimizing accessibility

As a UNESCO-protected site, the Saints Peter and Paul Garrison Church is under the close supervision of City Heritage Protection authorities, meaning structural modifications were strictly prohibited. But FlexStep met all requirements by offering a non-intrusive yet highly functional solution, ensuring accessibility while preserving the church’s historic appearance.


The FlexStep lift provided the ideal answer, seamlessly integrating into the church’s architecture without requiring structural changes. Installed within an ancient arch at the entrance, it maintains the building’s original aesthetic while offering a discreet and space-efficient accessibility solution.
