General information about Vyhraiv
The village of Vyhraiv is located 10 kilometers northwest of Korsun-Shevchenkivskyi.
The settlement was known in the 12th century as Horokhova Dibrova. The current name is connected with the fact that in these places in 1648, Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytskyi won the Battle of Korsun with the Polish army of Hetman Mykola Potoski, imposing on the Poles a battle on rough terrain that was disadvantageous for their cavalry (a commemorative obelisk has been installed on the battlefield) .
In Hlyboky Yar, on the southwestern outskirts of Vyhraiv, the remains of ditches dug by Maksym Kryvonos' Cossacks, preparing for an ambush, have been preserved. The museum of Cossack glory works.
Село Виграїв розташоване в 10 кілометрах на північний захід від Корсуня-Шевченківського.
Поселення відоме в XII сторіччя як Горохова Діброва. Нинішня назва пов'язана з тим, що в цих місцях в 1648 році гетьман Богдан Хмельницький виграв Корсунську битву з польською армією гетьмана Миколая Потоцького, нав'язавши полякам невигідний для їх кавалерії бій на пересіченій місцевості (на полі битви встановлено пам'ятний обеліск).
В Глибокому Яру на південно-західній околиці Виграєва збереглися залишки ровів, які викопали козаки Максима Кривоноса, готуючись до удару із засідки. Працює музей козацької слави.

The ambush arranged in Hlyboky Yar by the regiment of Maksym Kryvonos was of decisive importance.
The museum also has halls of ethnography and rural life: chests, towels, dishes, furniture, spinning wheels, a loom, etc.
