The Museum of Cossack Glory in Vyhraiv reveals the history of Cossack victories through the prism of the fate of their descendants.

The main hall is dedicated to the historical battle of Korsun in 1648, which took place in the Hlyboky Yar on the southwestern edge of the current village of Vyhraiv, which was then called Horokhova Dibrova. In this battle, the Cossack army of Hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky defeated the Polish troops of Hetman Mykolay Potoski, imposing a battle in unfavorable conditions for the Polish cavalry in the wooded rugged terrain. 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.
