Question: how old is lviv ukraine?
Answer: Lviv was officially founded in 1256 by King Daniel of Galicia in the Ruthenian principality of Halych-Volhynia and named in honour of his son Lev. The toponym may best be translated into English as Leo's lands or Leo's City (hence the Latin name Leopolis). In 1261, the city was invaded by the Tatars.
