The Museum of Art of the Old Ukrainian Book

The museum was opened in 1976 in the premises of the former Onufrievsky monastery, where the Russian first printer Ivan Fedorov was buried. In 1990, the museum was evicted from this room in connection with the transfer of the monastery to the Basilian Order and all its exhibits were kept in the basements of the Lviv Art Gallery.nThe museum collection includes 12 thousand exhibits, among them handwritten and old-printed books, Ukrainian editions of the XIX-XX centuries, book illustrations and ex libris, pedagogical literature.
