The Manor Museum of the Hero of Ukraine Vyacheslav Chornovil, an outstanding Ukrainian statesman, Soviet dissident, leader of the NRU party, was opened in Vilkhovets in the house where he spent his childhood and youth.
In 1946, at the age of nine, Vyacheslav and his family moved to Vilkhovets from their native Yerky. Here he graduated from high school, and in 1955 he went to Kyiv to enter the philological faculty of Kyiv University.
After his tragic death in 1999, his sister Valentyna Maksymivna donated the house to the Cherkasy Regional Museum of Local Lore. In 2007, in honor of the 70th anniversary of the birth of Chornovil, an exposition dedicated to him was opened in this building, and a bust of him was installed in the yard.
Visitors to the museum of Vyacheslav Chornovil have the opportunity to get acquainted with the original interiors of the rooms, unique photographs and documents, books, and personal belongings of the Chornovil family.
