Memorial Museum of Political Prisoners
The Vasyl Stus Memorial Museum for Political Prisoners was opened in Buchach in 1990 in the basement of a former KGB building, where a pre-trial detention center was located during the Soviet era. The exposition presents documents, photographs and personal belongings related to the events of the OUN-UPA liberation struggle and Stalinist repressions. It has been established that more than 1,500 residents of the district died at the hands of Stalin's executioners in those years. Some of the dead were buried in the basements of the Church of the Intercession.
