World War II) (named

Soviet soldiers was eliminated at the direction of urban authorities in the 1990s. The Field of Mars has been used as a burial site for Ukrainian soldiers who died during the

Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church's Military Chaplaincy Center. The
Lviv Oblast Council announced on May 20, 2022 that it would hold an architectural contest in order to select the design for a war memorial at the site, which has been described as part of the
decommunization process in Ukraine. On August 19, 2022, Lviv authorities approved the exhumation of the remains of Soviet soldiers from the location. The exhumation proceedings uncovered remains dating back to the
First World War and belonging to soldiers of the
German,

Cemetery of the Defenders of Lwów (Cemetery of Eaglets, ) is a memorial and a burial place for the
Poles and their allies who died in Lviv during the hostilities of the
Polish-Ukrainian War (1918−1919) and
Polish-Soviet War (1919−1921). The complex is a part of the Lychakiv Cemetery. There are about 3000 graves in that part of the cemetery; some from the
Lwów Eaglets young
militia volunteers, after whom that part of the cemetery is named. It was one of the most famous
necropolises of the
interwar Poland. Lviv was a city in interwar Poland and at the time named Lwów. Due to the history of complex
Polish-Ukrainian relations, the Polish Eaglets Cemetery was neglected because the Ukrainian authorities did not want to rebuild this monument of young Polish soldiers defending the city in 1920s. Though in the late 1980s, workers of a Polish company which were working in
Khmelnytskyi started to redecorate and rebuild the necropolis from its ruins (which was not always legal according to Ukrainian law). Although the Ukrainian authorities tried to stop the works several times, the Poles managed to renovate this important memorial of great Lvovians. Since 1999 there is also a monument to the
Sich Riflemen located just outside the Polish mausoleum. Since the
fall of communism, the cemetery had been rebuilt and refurbished. It was finally reopened on 24 June 2005.
