Sholom Aleichem Museum, Jewish literature museum in central Kyiv, Ukraine.
The museum displays extensive collections of Jewish ceremonial objects, traditional items, and original manuscripts within modern exhibition halls.
The building served as residence for writer Solomon Rabinovich from 1896 to 1903, where he wrote several stories under the name Sholom Aleichem.
The exhibition space presents materials about Jewish architecture, stone masonry, ancient books, and fragments of films based on Sholom Aleichem works.
Located at Velyka Vasylkivska Street 5, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM with guided tours in multiple languages.
This first state museum of Jewish themes in modern Ukraine opened in March 2009 to mark 150 years since the birth of Sholom Aleichem.
