Museum of History of KHNURE
About This Museum
Tucked away on Nauky Avenue, this isn't your typical technology museum; it's a deeply personal archive of the very university it resides in. You're walking through the living memory of KHNURE itself, where the story of Ukrainian radio engineering, electronics, and telecommunications unfolds not through generic displays, but through the actual achievements of its people. I was completely charmed by the palpable sense of pride and community that fills the rooms. It feels less like a formal institution and more like a cherished family attic, if your family happened to pioneer an entire field of science.
Collection Highlights
The heart of the collection is the groundbreaking equipment developed by university professors and alumni—think early Soviet-era radios and some of the first computing devices built right here in Kharkiv. Don't miss the personal artifacts from esteemed academics; their handwritten lecture notes and original schematic drawings make their genius feel incredibly immediate.
