General information about Water Museum (Kyiv)

The Water Information Center "Water Museum" was organized in 2003 in the premises of ancient water towers and reservoirs on a hill in the City Garden (formerly the Tsar's Garden) in Kyiv.

The exposition of the Water Museum acquaints visitors with the nature of the water cycle, water intake technology, water supply and sewerage. You can take a trip along the sewer to the treatment facilities of the Bortnychy aeration station, observe the melting of glaciers, the formation of rain and the eruption of the geyser.

For children there is an opportunity to change the course of the river, play with soap bubbles, check the power on the water pump, as well as touch live fish.

Водно-інформаційний центр "Музей води" організовано в 2003 році в приміщеннях старовинних водонапірних веж і резервуарів на пагорбі в Міському саду (колишній Царський сад) в Києві.

Експозиція Музею води знайомить відвідувачів з природою кругообігу води, технологією водозабору, водопостачання та каналізації. Можна здійснити подорож по каналізаційному колектору до очисних споруд Бортницької станції аерації, поспостерігати за таненням льодовиків, зародженням дощу та виверженням гейзера.

Для дітей є можливість змінити русло річки, погратися з мильними бульбашками, перевірити силу на водяному насосі, а також доторкнутися до живої риби.
