Victoria Museum is a museum of costume and style, founded in 2017 by the private collector Victoria Lysenko. Victoria Lysenko sought to create a beautiful, idealistic world full of beauty, inspiration and the best achievements of the pre-revolutionary era by opening the museum. This museum is about people who are proud of their origin, their ancestors, belonging to an ancient family. The museum has more than 1200 authentic exhibits of the 19th century, including clothes, shoes, accessories, jewelry and ordinary household items used by the inhabitants of Ukraine and Europe at that time - in general. The museum reflects the style of Europe at the time: Belle Époque, Silver Age, Edwardian Era, Victorian Era, Golden Age... The very names of these eras take us to a beautiful, turbulent world, where the economic and cultural rises and declines of countries succeeded each other. The consequences of these changes lead to incredible discoveries, new works of art and fashionable silhouettes, etc. Technological advances were taking over the world at breakneck speed, changing its face forever. In just a few decades, the crinoline and corset disappeared from the pages of fashion magazines, but the smooth lines and loose silhouettes familiar to us now appeared. It became possible to save images not only with the help of a drawing, but also in a photo, and even more so with a video camera. And electrification in general has radically changed all areas of life. Improvements, intellectual achievements, crazy development... This is the face of the era. And every single person who represented this era. The museum is a reflection of how quickly changes occur not only in fashion, but also the people themselves, in particular the women’s style. After all, the path that a woman walks through life is the path of ups and downs, stellar achievements and dizzying disappointments, incredible discoveries and irreparable mistakes. It is here that you can feel a woman's will to beauty, the thirst for life in all its manifestations - motherhood, travel, self-identification, acceptance of change, personal transformation, leadership... The Victoria Museum is a museum of one person, Victoria Lysenko, who has gone her incredible way from a girl from an ordinary family to a successful businesswoman and owner of an elite leisure place - a museum.

The classic of Yiddish literature, Sholom-Aleichem, is a prominent writer of the past whose works stood the test of time and belong to the treasure house of the world culture. "Sholom Aleichem" stands for "Peace to you!" This was the greeting echoing in every heart that over a hundred years ago Solomon Rabinovich, who soon became the most popular and the most favorite writer Sholom-Aleichem, gave to the Jewish people. He was a prominent publicist, a writer, and a public figure. Main themes of the Museum's display are Sholom-Aleichem and Kyiv, Sholom-Aleichem and Ukraine. This is entirely logical, since Kyiv played an important role in the writer's life: this is where he was shaped and developed, both as an individual and as a writer. This is where he longed to be as a young man and as a well-known writer living outside of the borders of the Russian Empire, this is where he expressed the will to be buried, next to his father, as he lay sick in New York. "Kyiv is my city. Staying away from it makes me sad." Sholom-Aleichem's response to a greetings telegram from Kyiv on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of his literary work. Italy, 1908. Sholom-Aleichem used to say about himself that he is the chronicler of Jewish life. "Why writing novels when life itself is a novel?" - reads an epigraph to his autobiographic novel "From the Fair." Life of a Jewish shtettl became the spring-well that nourished the writer's talent and inspiration. Our museum not only provides an account of life and work of the prominent writer. It also gives our visitor a chance to learn about the spiritual and material culture of the Jewish people. Sholom-Aleichem was born on March 2, 1859, in an old town of Pereyaslav to the family of a not too rich, not too poor merchant Nachum Rabinovich. The writer spent his childhood in Pereyaslav and in a small town of Voronkiv in Poltava Gubernia. It is Voronkiv that is often mentioned in Sholom-Aleichem's works under the invented name of Kasrilovka.
