Its collection exceeds 800,000 exhibits, among which are such unique ones as a Trypillian ceramic jug with a primeval agricultural calendar applied on it; portraits (parsunas) of Ukrainian hetmans and Cossack leaders, made in their lifetime; carriages of Empress Catherine II of Russia; and many other things.
Probably, the most interesting hall of the museum is its yard where a unique historic and archaeological exposition is on display. Each exhibit tells not only about a certain stage of history but about a selfless Herculean work of the archaeologists as well. For more than a century they continue excavations here, and each year brings sensational findings!
