Attractions of Yushkivtsi

The museum of the Ukrainian politician and participant in the liberation struggle Yaroslava Stetsko was opened in 2009 in the premises of the school in the village of Yushkivtsi, where Hanna Muzyka, better known as Slava Stetsko, taught in her youth. The initiator of the creation of the museum was local historian Volodymyr Lahotskyi.

Hanna Muzyka ended up in Yushkivtsi in 1939, hiding from the NKVD. Here, she worked as a principal of an elementary school for two years, until she moved to Lviv to enter the university. Took an active part in the activities of the OUN. In 1945, she organized the evacuation abroad of the wounded deputy leader of the OUN Yaroslav Stetsko, whom she later married. She returned to her homeland after Ukraine gained independence, where she headed the KUN party and became a people's deputy.

The museum presents the personal belongings of Slava Stetsko and her husband Yaroslav Stetsko. The interior of her office in Kyiv was reproduced: a chair, a table, a telephone, a typewriter, flags and an icon. Among the personal belongings are an embroidered jacket and a coat. In the basement, the underground printing house that worked here since 1944 has been recreated. A model of the rebel kryivka (hideout) is also presented.
