I’m an American that went to Ukraine in 2024 and again earlier this year. I visited this museum during my first time in Kyiv. I’m devastated to hear the news that it’s been destroyed. The amount of historical value that’s been lost is astonishing. I’m posting these pictures here in remembrance to show you what it looked like.

Because Russia is a terrorist state
They’ll never win and this will be rebuilt using reparations.
Interesting side-note: the flooring there mimics the graphite fuel cans from within the reactor. Very nice attention to detail.
Thank you for sharing your photos. I have been to Kyiv several times but never went to this museum. My loss.
Most important now is to get the photos out there so everyone can see what the museum was like. Probably the future will be photos and 3D printed replicas. And it will probably be a combined museum of both Chornobyl and Russia’s latest atrocities, so there’s certainly some new artficats.
That is awful. I was here in 2025. It is a very good place for showing the history. I hope it can be rebuilt
Fuck Russia! Honestly, just fuck them and Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦
Thank you for sharing these. I have always been fascinated by the Chornobyl disaster, born in 1986 myself, and hope to one day visit Ukraine and the site. Maybe photos like yours will help tell the story of what was lost.
Thank you! I didn’t know about the museum. Looks very interesting. It’s so terrible that they destroyed it.
Didn’t know about it. Your photos now very important. Another sad loss.
I’m glad I got to see it before this. Fuckers.
So moscow is still trying to cover up what it did. Putin is a terrorist.
Ukraine needs to payback russia. But hit them hard in Moscow remind those living there that they are able to be attacked and will be attacked
It makes poetic sense that Russia would want to destroy their myriad failures. They should start with their entire country.
