In particular, tools of the 18th-19th centuries, Ukrainian clothing and household items, a model of a Ukrainian peasant's house of the 19th century, as well as a unique model of the Velyki Sorochyntsi Savior and Transfiguration Church of the 18th century, the family tomb of the Hetman of the Left Bank of Ukraine Danylo Apostol, which is located nearby, are presented.

The former Zemska school building is located at the entrance to the village of Ryhy from the Krynytsia side.

It was one of the fifty schools of Lokhvytsia zemstvo, built in the first half of the 20th century according to the project of the famous architect and ethnographer Opanas Slastion (Slaston) in the style of Ukrainian modernism with the use of folk-style romantic decorative elements. A characteristic feature is the trapezoidal window and door openings, as well as the tented roof with folds.

The decorative tower above the vestibule was dismantled during the Soviet era, when the building housed the Ryhy Village Cultural Center.
