The Kyiv History Museum
Museum of the History of Kiev was established in November 1978. 4 years later, in honor of the 1500th anniversary of the city, its doors are open to visitors. I should say that in the history of its existence, the museum has gone through some pretty difficult periods. For many years he did not even have its own premises, and his staff wandered from building to building, carrying a box with valuable exhibits.
Today the museum`s collection numbers about 250 thousand valuable finds, which tell about the legendary appearance of Kiev, its development and formation. Here you can find all that relates to the culture of inhabitants of the capital, from the time of Kievan Rus`, when the state was ruled by Vladimir the Great and Yaroslav the Wise. The most valuable museum exhibits date from the period 19th - early 20th centuries. They were collected by the people of Kiev and transferred to the Museum as a gift.
In the Museum of the History of Kiev regularly hosts exhibitions that leave unforgettable impressions and raise questions about the events of the past.
