Ukrainian National Chornobyl Museum
The Ukrainian National Chornobyl Museum is a history museum in Kyiv, Ukraine, dedicated to the 1986 Chernobyl disaster and its consequences. It houses an extensive collection of visual media, artifacts, scale models, and other representational items designed to educate the public about many aspects of the disaster. Several exhibits depict the technical progression of the accident, and there are also many areas dedicated to the loss of life and cultural ramifications of the disaster. Due to the nature of the subject material, the museum provides a very visually engaging experience. A symbolic display of "road signs" represents the villages abandoned as a result of the disaster; to stress the tragedy of devastation, the signs are colored in black (instead of standard blue/white) and slashed with a pink stripe (which designates "end of the settlement" on the actual signs). Above the signs is an authentic Khorugv from the abandoned village church. The museum occupies an early 20th-century building which formerly housed a fire brigade and was donated in 1992 by the State Fire Protection Guard.

Hallway in the Ukrainian National Chernobyl Museum in Kyiv. In European signage, drivers are notified of entering a town by a sign (usually black on white) with the place name. At the city limits leaving town, the same appears but with a diagonal stroke through the word. These signs are of towns which were disbanded for being too close to the site of the disaster. The use of the diagonal stroke is used as a visual wordplay, symbolizing both "You are now leaving..." of road signage and cancellation of existence. Above the signs are the authentic khorugvs from the abandoned village churches. The walls and ceiling are hung with Ukrainian symbolic fabrics.
