Viacheslav Chornovil, a Hero of Ukraine, would be 65 years old on 24th December, 2002. This day, a museum was opened in his study situated in the building of People's Movement of Ukraine. The Museum has documents, photographs and personal things of the prominent journalist, politician, and fighter for independence of Ukraine.

The Museum exposition that reproduces different periods of the difficult life of Viacheslav Chornovil as well as the history of Ukraine independence is based on the materials provided by his wife Atena Pashko and sister Valentina Chornovil, and the People's Movement of Ukraine.

In the Museum you can see a legendary samizdat (self-published) Ukraine Vestnik newspaper, camp photographs, letters written while being prisoned, political leaflets, and personal documents of Viacheslav Chornovil and listen to a story told by his sister Valentina Chornovil.

The Museum is situated in the house No. 33 in Oles Honchar Street that has its own very interesting history.

There is an inscription on the facade of the building: The Surgical Hospital of Doctor of Medicine Makovsky. The board is decorated with two bas reliefs: half-naked women with wings on each side and a statue of a grinning lion above the ground floor.

This house was constructed by architect Ledukhovsky to the order of Pyotr Kachkovsky. Kachkovsky was a Doctor of Medicine and arranged a private surgical hospital in the building that was his home as well. Peter Kachkovsky died at the age of 45 in 1909 after some unsuccessful treatment.

In 1910, the Surgical Hospital of Doctor of Medicine Ignaty Makovsky was opened in the house No. 33 in Malovladimirskaya Street (Oles Honchar Street). It was here where Pyotr Stolypin, the Tsar Prime Minister, died in 1911 wounded to death by a terrorist in the Kiev Opera House.
