Станіславівська фортеця

The article introduces three archival primary sources into scholarly circulation for the first time. These sources are preserved in the Military Archive of the Austrian State Archives in Vienna (Österreichische Staatsarchiv. Kriegsarchiv. Wien) and include: the map «Plan der demolirten Festung Stanislawow. Durchshnitle nach den Linien», 1812 (Plan of the Demolished Fortress of Stanislawow. Cross-sections along the Lines), and two text documents – «Demolirung der Befestigung Stanislawow. Mineurs Detachement.

The Trinitarian monastery and church was an important part of the original planning structure of the Stanislawow fortress city (now Ivano-Frankivsk), an architectural complex of ground and underground buildings with a religious, residential and warehouse purpose. The research identifies the original form and composition, historical building periods, further development and current state of the monastic complex of the Trinitarians. Dozens of historians, architects, local history explorers have left their essays or articles about this complex.
