Current Exhibition

Destroyed Temples of Ukraine

 February 10 to April 27, 2025 

In 2023 the Museum of the Maidan launched the Destroyed Temples of Ukraine exhibit, co-organized with the Kyivan Cave Monastery National Preserve, the National Museum of the History of Ukraine in the Second World War, and the Heritage Emergency Response Initiative, displayed in the Refectory Church of the Kyivan Cave Monastery.

We are excited to display the English-language exhibit, created by the Maidan Museum and the Canadian Institute of Ukrainian Studies as a part of CIUS’s “Religion and War in Ukraine” project, supported by a grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).

The exhibit portrays places of worship of different confessions destroyed in Ukraine because of Russia’s ongoing aggression, and includes 32 posters with photographs, most of which were taken during expeditions of the National Memorial to the Heavenly Hundred Heroes and Revolution of Dignity Museum to the affected territories.
