He was among the founders of the Revolutionary Ukrainian Party (RUP) - the first political party in Trans-Dnipro Ukraine. He died in a plane crash during the first All-Russian Aviation Festival in 1910 near St. Petersburg.

The exhibition of Levko Matsiyevych's Room-Museum presents some of his personal belongings, photographs and documents, which were donated to the museum by a descendant of the Matsiyevych family, Ukrainian politician and public figure Yuriy Sakhno. A model of the Farman-4 plane, on which the aviator flew and died, was also presented.

A memorial plaque has been installed on the facade of the museum.

The Room-Museum of Levko Matsiyevych is a branch of the Oleksandrivka Museum of Local Lore.

The Oleksandrivka Museum of Local Lore was opened in 1987 on the initiative of the public of the Oleksandrivka urban-type village. The basis of the exposition was archeology items, Tsvitne ceramics, Ukrainian embroidered towels, weapons from the Second World War and other materials collected by enthusiasts.

The first hall depicts the history of Oleksandrivka and the entire region from the earliest times until 1917. The exposition about the era of the Cossacks is especially interesting, because the nearby village of Birky was owned by Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky, here he received ambassadors of foreign countries, gathered troops for the campaign against Poland, as evidenced by numerous objects of the 17th century found in Birky. Also interesting is the exposition "Ukrainian house of the early twentieth century", which presents various objects of folk life.

The second hall is dedicated to the troubled times of 1920-1930, when the Soviet-Ukrainian war, collectivization and the Holodomor were raging in the region. The history of the region during the Second World War is an exposition of the third hall. The fourth hall is dedicated to the history of the region in the postwar period and the present. There is a department of nature and an art department, where the works of local masters are presented.

Branches of the Oleksandrivka Museum of Local Lore are the Levko Matsievych Room-Museum in Oleksandrivka and the Rozumivka Village History Museum.

The building of the railway station "Fundukliyivka" of the Odesa Railway was built in Oleksandrivka in 1876 at the expense of Kyiv governor Ivan Fundukley, a scientist and philanthropist who owned the surrounding estates in the second half of the 19th century.
