FC Shakhtar Museum

Our partners:

FC Shakhtar Museum is the biggest sports and interactive museum in Ukraine. In 2012, it was shortlisted among Europe’s top new 45 museums nominated for the prestigious European Museum of the Year Award 2012.

Colourful exhibition of the museum reflects in detail all stages in the development of Donetsk-based team - from an outfit representing the mining region to the club of European level. The museum’s five historic rooms showcase the team’s trophies, the players and coaches’ personal awards, the player kits of different periods, rare historical documents and photographs. The centrepiece of the museum is the UEFA Cup won by the Pitmen back in May 2009, and a 23-metre long Wall of Fame featuring alongside metal-cast palmprints and footprints of the iconic players and coaches of Shakhtar.

Through the use of the state-of-the-art entertainment technology, the museum visitors experience a fascinating show on the only-in-Ukraine foggy screen. In the playing areas, you can enjoy PlayStation games and play interactive football. We advise those wishing to experience the atmosphere of the renowned ‘fifth stand’ (as they used to call the slag heap near Shakhtar Central Stadium back in the 1950-60s) to visit a cosy cinema hall, located right there. Matches of the past, films about the team’s performance in past seasons and the stadium construction, celebratory performances, electronic archive, video tutorials and lectures, meetings with FC Shakhtar legends, children's birthday parties - this is an incomplete list of the exclusive services available at FC Shakhtar Museum.
