About this place

Thanks to the private collection of public figure V. Hoshkevych, the history of the Kherson local history museum began. In 1890, the collection was named "Archaeological Museum at the Kherson Statistical Committee." After a long time, with repeated mergers and separations of related museums, in 1963 the Kherson Regional Local History Museum was finally formed, with an area of 2400 sq. m.

The museum has two main exhibitions, which regularly change their exhibits and hold exhibitions. In the Kherson local history museum, more than 170 thousand exhibits have been collected, of which only 10 thousand are on display for visitors. Thanks to the constant updating of the exhibitions, visitors have the opportunity to learn many interesting things about the war years, people's lives and daily life, and important events of the past.
