Berdiansk Museum of Local Lore, Local museum in Berdiansk, Ukraine.

The Berdiansk Museum of Local Lore houses archaeological artifacts, ethnographic objects, and natural history specimens collected from the surrounding area. The collections span multiple periods and demonstrate the diverse heritage of the region.

Founded in 1929 in the former city council building, the museum was destroyed during the Second World War and reopened in 1944 in a building in P. P. Schmidt Park. In 1958 it moved to 14 Peremohy Avenue, where it still occupies the ground floor of a three-storey residential block. A 1977–1978 renovation added an exhibition hall, a staff office and a ticket desk.

The museum's "Interior of a 19th-century Ukrainian Peasant Hut" display is used for museum performances staged around the folk and religious calendar. Greek and Bulgarian communities are covered separately, in thematic displays such as "Greeks in Berdiansk" and "Bulgarians in Tavria". Guided tours are given in Ukrainian, Russian and Bulgarian.

The museum is straightforward to find and offers guided tours and educational programs for visitors. It's best to check opening hours before your visit, as times may vary depending on the season or special events.

The museum keeps a large collection of Polovtsian stone statues, called "babas", set up in open-air displays together with the memorial house-museum of P. P. Schmidt. Its holdings also include objects from the Scythian period of the 4th century BC. The collection is divided into 11 storage groups, from archaeology to the present day.
