About This Museum

You might not expect to find a trove of modern history in a small western Ukrainian town, but that's exactly what awaits you here. This intimate museum room is dedicated to the brave souls who fought for Ukraine's independence, from the early 20th century partisans to the soldiers of today. It feels less like a formal institution and more like walking into a community's living room, packed with personal stories. Every photograph and worn-out boot tells a silent, powerful story of resilience.

Collection Highlights

Look for the hand-stitured flags and the personal letters smuggled out of Soviet prisons; they're incredibly moving. You'll also find poignant modern additions, like patches and tokens from those serving in the ongoing war in the East.

Visitor Information

It's on Lesi Ukrainky Street, number 7, right in the heart of Kopychyntsi. Since it's a smaller space, it's a good idea to ask locally about opening hours before you pop in.

Architecture & Building

Housed in a simple, unassuming building typical of the town's central streets, with a facade that blends into the everyday life around it.
