Museum and heritage
Sergei Korolev Museum of Cosmonautics
The cosmonautics museum documents space history and Sergei Korolev, who was born in Zhytomyr. Confirm which objects and buildings can currently be accessed with the museum.
Religious building
Zhytomyr Transfiguration Cathedral
The domes and facade of the Transfiguration Cathedral form a landmark in central Zhytomyr. The marker identifies the building without advertising services or guided tours.
Architectural heritage
Zhytomyr Suspension Bridge
The suspension bridge crosses the wooded Teteriv landscape near Shoduar Park. The view documents the structure and valley; check its condition, opening and permission to cross.
Religious building
Saint Sophia Cathedral in Zhytomyr
The Catholic Saint Sophia Cathedral has a different silhouette from the Orthodox Transfiguration Cathedral. Including both distinguishes Zhytomyr’s religious traditions.
