Military History of Slobozhanshchyna National Museum

Museum / gallery , Monument

The National Museum of Military History of Slobozhanshchyna was opened in Solonytsivka in 1965 as the National Memorial Complex "Marshal Konev Height". In 2003, on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Kharkiv from the German fascist invaders, a complete reconstruction was carried out. In January 2025, during the decommunization of Ukraine, the name was changed from "National Memorial Complex "Marshal Konev Height" to "National Museum of Military History of Slobozhanshchyna".

In 1943, the headquarters of the Steppe Front commander was located here, from where Marshal Konev gave the order for the night assault on Kharkiv, and the next day the city was liberated. About half a million soldiers died in the battle, but this operation initiated the liberation of all of Ukraine.

The complex includes a 17.5-meter-high stele, an exhibition of military equipment, a chapel in honor of John the Warrior, and a museum complex.

The exposition of the National Museum of Military History of Slobozhanshchyna presents artifacts from the times of Soviet and German occupation, models of equipment, tanks and steam locomotives, tools, archival photographs, documents, postcards, books, Ukrainian clothing and towels, uniforms of soldiers of the Soviet, Polish and Nazi armies, weapons of different countries, shells, bombs, bullets, medals and badges, miniatures of rooms with old furniture, maps, paintings and portraits, sailors' uniforms, sea mines, boats, fragments of aircraft shells and equipment, part of the decoration of the Reichstag building, exhibits dedicated to the Holocaust and camps, prisoners' uniforms and clothing.

A separate hall of the museum is devoted to exhibits of the Afghan War: paintings, weapons, military uniforms and clothing of local residents.

There is also a large exhibition dedicated to the modern Russian-Ukrainian war, the defense of Donetsk airport. The halls display uniforms, weapons, shell fragments, medals and awards, models of modern military equipment and flags.
