Museum / gallery
The historical and local lore museum in the town of Rozhyshche in Volyn was opened in 1977 on the initiative of local historians.
Now the museum consists of 4 departments: nature, ethnography, history and art. Valuable exhibits include the 17th-century icon "Exaltation of the Holy and Life-Giving Cross of the Lord" and wreaths of the same period, as well as sculptures of Catholic saints from the nearby village of Pozharka.
Separate expositions are devoted to the activities of the UPA in Volyn and the historical fate of Ukrainians deported from Poland to Ukraine in 1944-1946.
In the ethnographic department, the interior of a peasant's house of the middle of the 19th century is reproduced. 22 paintings for the art exhibition of the Rozhyshche Historical and Local History Museum were donated by an honorary resident of the city, artist Mykola Savchuk.
