Bulgakov Museum, Literature museum in Andriivskyi Descent, Ukraine.

The Bulgakov Museum is housed in a 19th-century building on Andriivskyi Descent and displays photographs, manuscripts, and personal items belonging to the writer. The collection spans two floors and presents materials from different periods of his life and career.

The building was constructed in 1888 and later transformed into a museum in 1991 to honor the writer's memory and work. This conversion came during a period of growing interest in Bulgakov's literary legacy.

The name "House of the Turbins" comes from Viktor Nekrasov's 1965 essay in Novy Mir, which named the building after the fictional family of The White Guard rather than its author. The museum's roughly 2,500 items include Bulgakov's belongings, books, postcards and photographs. In June 2014 the administration discouraged supporters of the military occupation of Ukraine from visiting.

Access can be limited due to the building's original architecture, so it's worth checking ahead about mobility if needed. Guided tours on-site help explain the displayed works and items.

The house is called after the Turbin family, the fictional characters of The White Guard, not after Bulgakov himself. The name was fixed by writer Viktor Nekrasov, whose 1965 essay in Novy Mir described searching out flat No. 13 on Andriivskyi Descent. Inna Konchakovskaia, daughter of the owner and niece of composer Witold Maliszewski, kept the building through the Soviet years.
