I need to look at these photos to be sure it is true.
Well - regarding the pictures which were assumed to be copyvio due to no freedom of panorama in Ukraine and showing buildings made by Polish architects before II World War - the case is not that obvious and IMHO should be carefully discussed - maybe even with help of professional lawyer.
I don't know anythingh about current Ukrainian law - but if we assume that
a) Lviv was Polish before II world war b) the architect was Polish citizen
The applicable copyrigh work for plans of builiding is rather Polish than Ukrainian.
Acutally the bulidings are on Ukrainian soil - but the copyright is not about physical objects but about the creative work of architect, so in fact it doesn't matter where the physical object is actually located to decide which law is applicable.
