Museum of Lesya Ukrainka, Yalta

The museum occupies a stone building constructed between 1884 and 1885 by architect Platon Terebenev near the Black Sea coast.

Ukrainian writer Lesya Ukrainka resided in this house during her late twenties, where she wrote several works including the poem Oderdyma.

The museum collection includes first editions of Ukrainka's writings, personal letters, photographs, and traditional Ukrainian national garments from the period.

The museum contains exhibitions on two floors, with the main collection focusing on the writer's connection to the Crimean region.

This cultural institution changed its operational focus and narrative presentation following the territorial changes in Crimea after 2014.
