The only museum in Ukraine devoted to the Polish poet Juliusz Słowacki — in the Słowacki family home.

Juliusz Słowacki was born in Kremenets on 20 September 1809; the museum is housed in the Słowacki family home, where the poet spent his childhood. It is a two-storey house in the Classicist style, and the exhibition in it has been open since 20 September 2004. Eight halls tell of the poet's childhood and student years, his life in Warsaw, his travels, his Paris period and his letters. The collection numbers 1500 exhibits, among them the original of the poet's autobiography and copies of his manuscripts. A monument to Słowacki was erected in front of the house in 1969.
