About This Museum
It’s a curious truth that some of the most potent history is housed in the city's most unassuming buildings. Tucked away on Henerala Tarnavs'koho Street, this museum doesn't shout for attention with grand facades but instead pulls you into a quiet, intense conversation with the past. Inside, the air feels thick with stories of resistance and national identity, each artifact a testament to a fierce and complex struggle. You don't just walk through these exhibits; you feel the weight of every document and faded photograph.
Collection Highlights
Personal letters and diaries share space with wartime uniforms and clandestine press publications, creating a deeply human narrative. The collection focuses intently on the 20th-century Ukrainian liberation movement, with specific emphasis on the activities of the OUN and UPA.
Visitor Information
You'll find it at number 22 on Henerala Tarnavs'koho Street—look for a building that feels more like a significant piece of history than a tourist destination. It's wise to set aside a couple of hours to fully absorb the dense, text-rich displays.
Architecture & Building
The building itself is a subdued example of late 19th or early 20th-century Central European civic architecture, characterized by its functional, almost austere facade that speaks more to utility than ornament.
