Taras Shevchenko Museum

Museum / gallery

The Taras Shevchenko Museum was created at the educational complex of the village of Shechenkove in Sumy region due to the fact that the outstanding Ukrainian poet visited here in 1859.

In the then Hyrivka, Shevchenko stayed for several days at the estate of the Lazarevsky family. Here he worked on some poetic works, among them - "Oh, on the mountain the rose blooms". He also painted a portrait of the hostess - Afanasia Lazarevska.

The museum was founded in 1961 as Taras Shevchenko's school literature room. The main exposition is dedicated to Taras Shevchenko's connections with the Lazarevsky family.
Among them are photocopies of family documents, a portrait of historian Oleksandr Lazarevsky, and the memoirs of his son.

The ethnographic corner presents household items that peasants used during Shevchenko's lifetime: jugs, plates, towels, etc.
