The tower bears the coat of arms of the city and chimes with three dials. In 1880, Ivan Franko spent several hours under arrest in the premises of the city hall, who was detained by the gendarmerie post for violating the passport regime.

As in the old days, the premises are now occupied by the city government - the Kolomyia City Council is located here.

Lyceum named after Mykhaylo Hrushevskyi (Ursulian Monastery)

Architecture

Kolomyia Lyceum named after Mykhaylo Hrushevskyi is located in the former building of the Ursuline sisters' monastery, built in 1907.

In 1892, deputies of the Galician Diet decided to open a Ukrainian gymnasium in Kolomyia. Initially, only the Ukrainian class was created at the Polish gymnasium (the Ukrainian writer Vasyl Stefanyk studied there). The public demanded the separation of Ukrainian classes from Polish classes, and this happened in 1900. At the same time, the gymnasium got its own premises (the northern wing of the Polish gymnasium was completed).

In 1939, the Ukrainian gymnasium was closed, and a secondary school was opened in its premises. In 1990, the regional executive committee decided to revive the Kolomyia humanitarian gymnasium. It was placed in a complex of buildings of the monastery of the Ursuline Sisters, where there was a private female gymnasium before the Second World War.

Today it is the Mykhaylo Hrushevsky Lyceum in Kolomyia.
