Reference: The National Historical and Ethnographic Reserve "Pereyaslav" unites the territories of Pereyaslav and adjacent areas, includes 371 immovable monuments and 24 thematic museums and preserves over 170,000 units of the main museum fund, representing the archaeological, historical, ethnographic and artistic heritage of Ukraine. The reserve was established in 1979 as a historical and cultural complex, and in 1999 received national status, consolidating the leading role of the institution in preserving the cultural heritage of the Middle Dnieper region. Mykhailo Sikorsky created a unique model of a museum-reserve with an extensive system of specialized museums, combined administrative, scientific and educational activities, and defined a long-term strategy for the development and preservation of the historical and cultural landscape of the Pereyaslav region.
