The Literary Museum of Hryhoriy Skovoroda in the village of Kovrai was created in 1972.
In 1753-1759, the Ukrainian poet, philosopher, man of letters and musician Hryhoriy Skovoroda lived in the Kovrai estate and worked as a tutor in the family of Stepan Tomara. Skovoroda taught Tomara's eldest son various sciences, and he devoted his free time to literary creativity.
In Kovrai, he wrote many poems, which were later included in the famous cycle "The Garden of Divine Songs", including the most famous of them - "Fortune and rights to every city...".
A cellar has been preserved on the site of the Tomara manor.
The museum is located on the territory of the secondary school. In 2012, reconstruction was carried out, the museum exposition was significantly expanded. Next to the monument to Hryhoriy Skovorodi, there is a broken park.
