Nizhyn Post Office Museum
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.
