History

[edit]
Victoria Museum

The museum is located in a historic mansion in Kyiv, built in the late 19th century. The building has been in disrepair since 2000. In 2009, the mansion was extensively restored and strengthened. Balcony railings on the 2nd and 3rd floors have been preserved in their original form.

According to the founder of the museum, Victoria Lysenko, preparations for the opening lasted 9 months. In particular, Victoria Lysenko had an internship at British museums.[4]

On May 30, 2017 "Victoria Museum" was opened.[5]

The museum has 7 showrooms located on two floors. Its hallmark is a brown dress from the Victorian era, which is over 150 years old.[6]

On July 20, 2017, the presentation of the "Victoria Museum" for business travel and meeting industry professionals was organized by the Business Tourism Association of Ukraine.[7]
