Pedagogical Museum, Educational museum in Volodymyrska Street, Kyiv, Ukraine.

The Pedagogical Museum occupies the second floor of Kyiv's Teachers' House at 57 Volodymyrska Street, a building designed by Pavlo Alyoshyn. The three-storey structure has a semicircular risalit under a dome, walls of brick faced with white Inkerman stone, and a carved sculptural frieze around the third floor on the theme of education. A cast-iron fence follows a design by Alexander Beretti.

The Pedagogical Museum was founded in 1901 and opened in 1902; its own building on Volodymyrska Street was designed by Pavlo Alyoshyn, laid in 1910 and consecrated on 28 August 1911. It opened as a museum on 5 October 1912. After 1917 the building housed the Ukrainian Central Rada and later the Directory. From 1925 it held the Museum of Revolution, and from 1938 the Kyiv branch of the Lenin Museum.

The museum's name honours Tsarevich Alexei: the foundation stone was laid on his birthday, 12 August 1910, and a small silver model of the building was inscribed to him. The first director was the Ukrainian methodologist Oleksandr Muzychenko. The building also hosted the first two congresses of Ukrainian teachers in 1917, which pressed for Ukrainian-language schooling.

The museum sits in the heart of Kyiv, making it easy to combine with other nearby sites along Volodymyrska Street. A morning visit tends to be quieter and gives you more time to look at the objects without rushing.

The building was laid on 12 August 1910, the birthday of Tsarevich Alexei, and was officially named the Pedagogical Museum of Tsarevich Alexei. A small silver model of the museum was made with the dedication "To Tsarevich Alexei". The carved sculptural frieze running around the third floor depicts the history of education and was designed by L. A. Ditrikh and V. V. Kozlov.
