General information about Nizhyn Post Office Museum (Nizhyn)

The only complex of post office buildings in Ukraine (XVIII century), which is almost completely preserved, in which the museum "Nizhyn Post Office" was opened. Post offices in Kyiv, Nizhyn and Baturyn were opened after the decree of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich on regular postal services between Moscow and Kiev in 1669. At the beginning of the XIX century Nizhyn post office was one of the largest in the Left Bank of Ukraine. M. Lomonosov, O. Pushkin, M. Gogol, T. Shevchenko and others stayed in the local hotel. The exposition is located in the former house of the station supervisor. The interior of the waiting room has been restored. The exhibition presents, in particular, a collection of postage stamps of Ukraine and Russia.

Єдиний в Україні комплекс будівель поштової контори (XVIII ст.), що майже повністю зберігся, в якому відкрито музей "Ніжинська поштова станція". Поштові станції у Києві, Ніжині та Батурині були відкриті після указу царя Олексія Михайловича про регулярне поштове сполучення між Москвою та Києвом від 1669 року. На початок XIX століття Ніжинська поштова станція була однією з найбільших на Лівобережній Україні. В тутешньому готелі зупинялися М. Ломоносов, О. Пушкін, М. Гоголь, Т. Шевченко та ін. Експозиція розміщена у колишньому будинку станційного наглядача. Відновлено інтер'єр кімнати очікування. В експозиції представлено, зокрема, колекцію поштових марок України та Росії.
