Attractions of Ivankiv

The "Egg of Life" monument was installed in 2000 at the exit from Ivankiv in the direction of Ovruch, near the bus station.

An unusual concrete sculpture in the form of a huge egg was presented to the village by the German architect Armin Koelbli as a symbol of the life and fertility of the earth, which should be revived after the severe "Chornobyl disease".

Ivankiv Local History Museum is located in the city park, on the site of an ancient Rus settlement of the X-XIII centuries.

The exposition presents samples of fauna and flora of the region, collection of antique household items, reconstruction of the interior of the Ukrainian house of Polissya region.

The exhibition "Ivankiv and Munster in the Second World War - Ukrainian-German research project" tells about the life of the town during the Nazi occupation and deportation of residents to forced labor in Germany.

The exposition "Chornobyl is our pain" tells about the accident at the Chornobyl nuclear power plant and the elimination of its consequences.

The pride of the museum is an exhibition of paintings by the People's Artist of Ukraine Mariya Prymachenko, who lived in the neighboring village of Bolotnia.

At the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion in February 2022, when Ivankiv came under fire, the Ivankiv History and Local History Museum burned down. But the employees managed to save all the paintings of Mariya Prymachenko. The restoration of the museum is planned.
