General information about Pidlyssia

The village of Pidlyssia is located among the forests of the low-mountain range of Voroniaky between Zolochiv, Olesko and Busk. Administratively, it is part of the Zolochiv community of the Zolochiv district of the Lviv region.

The village was first mentioned in documents in 1550. In 1735, the wooden Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord was built, which is an example of folk architecture of the Galician school.

In 1811, in the family of a Greek-Catholic priest, Markiyan Shashkevych, an outstanding Ukrainian writer and public figure, "awakener" of Ukrainian national consciousness in Galicia, was born here. A museum-reserve operates in the recreated Shashkevych manor.

Markiyan Shashkevych Museum-Reserve

Museum / gallery

The museum-reserve of the Ukrainian writer Markiyan Shashkevych was opened in 1986 in his native village of Pidlyssia on the occasion of the 175th anniversary of his birth. It is located on the territory of the restored manor of the Shashkevych family.

Markiyan Shashkevych, a religious and cultural and public figure, the initiator of the new Ukrainian literature, the "awakener" of national consciousness in Galicia, was born in Pidlyssia in 1811, and spent his childhood years there.

The first Shashkevych museum room was opened at the local library back in 1959. Later, according to descriptions and documents, the Shashkevych estate was recreated, including his grandfather's house. The house reproduces the Western Ukrainian lifestyle of the first half of the 19th century.

The exposition reveals the difficult life path, priestly, social and creative activities of Markiyan Shashkevych, in particular his chairmanship of the "Ruthenian Triad" (Ruska Triytsia) society. The central place is given to the edition of "The Mermaid of Dniester" - a folk-literary almanac, printed in 1837 in a lively colloquial Ukrainian language. Among Shashkevych's personal belongings are presented a casket and a tuning fork, handed over from Poland by Yulian Kupchynskyi.

A well and an old oak from the time of the spiritual enlightener have been preserved on the territory of the manor. A bust of Markiyan Shashkevych by Dmytro Krvavych is installed near the museum.

Museum-Reserve of Markiyan Shashkevych is a branch of the Lviv National Art Gallery.
