Brygidki (Ukrainian: Бригідки) is a prison in the building of a former Bridgettine nunnery in Lviv, Ukraine.
In 1784 the Brygidki building was turned into a prison, where death sentences would be carried out on a regular basis until the 1980s.
Approximately 7,000 prisoners - primarily Poles and Ukrainians - died in Lviv in that event.
During the German occupation, mass murders of Polish, Jewish and Ukrainian civilians occurred in Brygidki.
