The village of Kvitky is located 10 kilometers south of Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi.
According to legend, it was founded in the 17th century by the Zaporizhzhian Cossack Kvitka, although archaeological findings indicate that this territory was inhabited even earlier. In 1792, Kvitky was granted the right of Magdeburg. The wooden Saint Nicolas Church (not preserved) was known from the 18th century.
In 1882, the outstanding composer Kyrylo Stetsenko was born in Kvitky. The Stetsenko museum was opened in the building of the Zemstvo school where he studied.
Near the village is the "Flower Spring" spring, which blows with three jets from a white clay mountain.
Село Квітки розташоване в 10 кілометрах на південь від Корсуня-Шевченківського.
За легендою, засноване в XVII сторіччі запорозьким козаком Квіткою, хоча археологічні знахідки свідчать, що ця територія була заселена і раніше. В 1792 році Квіткам було надано Магдебурзьке право. З XVIII століття була відома дерев'яна Миколаївська церква (не збереглася).
В 1882 році в Квітках народився видатний композитор Кирило Стеценко. В будівлі земської школи, де він навчався, відкрито музей Стеценка.
Поруч з селом розташоване джерело "Квіткове джерело", який б'є трьома струменями з білоглиняної гори.
Kyrylo Stetsenko Memorial Museum
Museum / gallery
The memorial museum of Kyrylo Stetsenko was created in 1959 in the composer's native village in the Korsun region.
Kyrylo Stetsenko was born in the village of Kvitky in 1882.
The museum is located in the restored building of the Zemstvo school, where Stetsenko studied. About 400 exhibits tell about his life and creative activity. Despite a rather short creative life, Kyrylo Stetsenko managed to create a number of outstanding works, including patriotic and spiritual works.
Since 1994, the museum has been a branch of the Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi Historical and Cultural Reserve.
A monument to Kyrylo Stetsenko was erected near the museum.
