Mystetskyi Arsenal, Art museum and cultural complex in Kyiv, Ukraine
The Mystetskyi Arsenal occupies a building with 183-centimeter-thick walls and features 60,000 square meters of exhibition space for art presentations.
The structure, designed by architect Karl Johann Shpekle in 1798, initially served as a military arsenal for manufacturing and storing ammunition in the Pechersk citadel.
The institution presents contemporary art exhibitions, organizes Ukraine's largest annual book fair, and maintains spaces for educational programs and artistic laboratories.
Visitors can explore the museum from Thursday through Sunday between 11:00 AM and 8:00 PM, with full wheelchair access throughout the facility.
Archaeological excavations at the site revealed a 16th-century necropolis containing hundreds of burials and artifacts from a former female monastic community.
