Saints Peter and Paul Garrison Church (Ukrainian: Гарнізонна церква святих апостолів Петра і Павла, romanized: Harnizonna tserkva svyatykh apostoliv Petra i Pavla), known as the Jesuit Church, is an historic church in Lviv, Ukraine, built in years 1610-1630.

The church was built by the Society of Jesus in the baroque style at the beginning of the 17th century. It was closed by the Soviet Government in 1946 and used as a warehouse and book depository for several decades.

In 2010, the church was turned over to the Ukrainian Greek-Catholic Church, which restored the church and re-consecrated it in 2011. Today, it is a garrison church for the Ukrainian military.
