Markivka

Mykola Leontovych Museum was opened in the village of Markivka, where the composer's father, the author of the world-famous Shchedryk, lived.

It was in the house of Mykola Leontovych's father that he was shot by a Chekist in 1921. He was buried in Markivka at the same time. And in 1977, to the centenary of the composer's birthday, a museum was opened and a bronze bust was installed (artist Yaroslav Ulhursky).

The museum presents photos of the Leontovych family, original manuscripts of scores, title covers of the First and Second collections of songs from Podillya, pianos, books, sheet music, and furniture.

A granite obelisk is installed on Leontovych's grave. It is planned to erect a monument to Shchedryk.

On August 22, 2016, the renovated museum of Mykola Leontovych was opened as a branch of the Vinnytsia Regional Museum of Local Lore.
