Bilyky Museum of Local Lore

Museum / gallery

The Bilyky Museum of Local Lore was founded in 1972 as a folk museum of history and applied arts of the urban-type settlement of Bilyky. In 2021, part of the exposition of the former literary and memorial museum of the Hungarian writer and Bolshevik Mate Zalka was included in its composition.

The museum is located in the former priest's house, built in 1905 in the center of the village of Bilyk. In 1921, the chieftain Nestor Makhno lived in this house for a short time. During the Soviet period, the house housed the village council.

The historical part of the exhibition presents archaeological materials found in the village and its surroundings, an ethnographic collection of applied art products, materials about the history of the village and its prominent residents. There are collections of paintings and sculptures by local artists, models of monuments erected in the village.

Museum employees conduct sightseeing tours of the ramparts of the Cossack fortresses of Bilyke and Sokilka, as well as the ruins of the Zhevakhov estate, where a sanatorium operated in Soviet times.
