Museum of the History of Pilots of the Dnieper rapids
The Museum of the History of Pilots of the Dnieper Thresholds is located in the Lots-Kamyansky House of Culture on the southern outskirts of the Dnieper, in the village of Lotsmanskaya Kamyanka, where Dnieper pilots, descendants of the Zaporozhian Cossacks, lived for a long time. Prior to the construction of Dniproges, pilots escorted ships across rapids on the Dnieper. The Museum of the History of Pilots and Pilot Crafts was created on the basis of the private collection of the last Dnieper pilot G. Omelchenko. The small room of the House of Culture houses about 200 exhibits: anchors, oars, pilots' clothes, embroidered towels and shirts, chests, jugs, folk paintings and dozens of photographs.
