General information about Museum "House at Priorka" (Kyiv)

The Taras Shevchenko Memorial Building-Museum on Priorka in Kyiv, a department of the Shevchenko National Museum, is called "House at Priorka".

The poet lived here for some time in 1859, during his last stay in Kyiv, waiting for permission to leave for St. Petersburg.

The museum exposition recreates the life of the Kyiv suburbs of the second half of the 19th century. Most of the things exhibited in the house were handed over by residents of Priorka, descendants of those people who personally met Shevchenko.

A 400-year-old oak still grows near the house, under which, according to contemporaries, the poet liked to sit.

"Хатою на Пріорці" називають Меморіальний будинок-музей Тараса Шевченка на Пріорці у Києві, відділ Національного музею Шевченка.

Поет жив тут деякий час у 1859 році, під час свого останнього перебування у Києві, чекаючи на дозвіл на виїзд до Петербурга.

В експозиції музею відтворено побут київської околиці другої половини ХІХ століття. Більшість речей, які експонуються в будинку, було передано мешканцями Пріорки, нащадками тих людей, які особисто зустрічалися із Шевченком.

Неподалік будинку досі росте 400-річний дуб, під яким, за спогадами сучасників, любив сидіти поет.
