First National Ruthenian Viche
У 1880 році відбулася подія, яка стала відправною точкою в процесі перетворення Львова на "столицю українського руху" в Галичині. "Всенародне віче", приурочене столітньому ювілею правління імператора Йосифа ІІ, русини розпочали в той самий день, коли поляки відзначали 50-ліття Листопадового повстання.
Commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the abolition of corvee labour held in Lviv (1898)
The anniversary of the "liberation of the peasantry", which was marked by a celebration in the capital of the crown province, was a confirmation of the status of Lviv both as a place where public policy was made and as a symbolic city for which national projects competed. The large-scale character of the "Ruthenian action" was, as usual, to be provided by peasants from throughout the province.
