The Ministry of Culture of Ukraine has added nine buildings in the Pecherskyi and Podil districts of Kyiv to the State Register of Immovable Monuments. The decision is formalised by Order No. 495.
Each building granted monument status represents the protection of Ukraine’s history and the organisation of the cultural heritage sector.
