The village of Pisky is located 70 kilometers from Kyiv along the Sumy highway, 10 kilometers northwest of Nova Basan.
It was founded in the 17th century on the sand hills, which is where the name comes from. In 1887, a wooden Trinity Church was built, which burned down during the Second World War (now a new stone church is in its place).
In 1891, the outstanding Ukrainian poet Pavlo Tychyna was born in the village of Pisky. A museum was opened in the poet's native house, and a monument was erected.
Село Піски розташоване в 70 кілометрах від Києва по сумської трасі, в 10 кілометрах на північний захід від Нової Басані.
Засноване в XVII сторіччі на піщаних пагорбах, звідки походить назва. В 1887 році була побудована дерев'яна Троїцька церква, яка згоріла під час Другої світової війни (зараз на її місці новий кам'яний храм).
В 1891 році в селі Піски народився видатний український поет Павло Тичина. В рідному домі поета відкрито музей, встановлено пам'ятник.
Pavlо Tychyna Historical and Memorial Museum
Museum / gallery , Palace / manor
The historical and memorial museum of Pavlo Tychyna was opened in the village of Pisky in 1981 in the house where the future poet was born in 1891 and where he spent his childhood years.
Pavlo Tychyna's parental house was recreated according to the drawings of the architect Oleksandr Nozdrin and the memories of the poet's sister (the original burned down during the Second World War). There is a village stove, a kerosene lamp, makitras and other household items.
A monument to the poet was erected in the yard, next to the well.
The museum's exposition continues in the adjacent room: first editions of books, photographs, personal belongings. Several stands tell about the public and political activities of the poet-academic, who was the Minister of Education of Ukraine, a deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, and the chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR.
