One of the few world museums dedicated to toilets is in Kiev, the capital of independent Ukraine bombed by Russian troops. It is worth paying him a virtual visit before the “collateral damage” accidentally destroys its unique collections.
The Toilet History Museum is a private museum founded in Kiev by a married couple of businessmen and hygiene history enthusiasts, Nikolay and Marina Bogdanenko. It was opened in September 2007. It is on the list of the 10 most popular and interesting museums in Ukraine.
It is located in "Tower number 5", on Rybalska Street No. 22. The tower was part of the fortifications of the Kyiv Fortress and was finished in 1846 for a Russian army as a warehouse with provisions and ammunition. Today, the tower houses one of the largest business centers in Kiev and the world's largest collection of toilets and related souvenirs, which was recorded in the Guinness Book of Records.
The museum's exhibits are arranged chronologically according to the history of human development: "Prehistory", "Antiquity", "Middle Ages", "Rebirth", "XVII - XXI Century" and "ART WC".
We invite you to visit it, temporarily virtually, in person in the near future!

Dear Members, Dear Friends of the Societas Lindleiana,
In the hectic days day of traditional Polish Christmas, so important for every family, the Board of SL wishes you and your families, when you seat tired but happy by the handsomely stocked table and beautifully decorated Christmas tree, a moment of reflection over the passage of time.
And when the snow falls, we invite you to take a walk and seat on a certain bench near Royal Castle and look at the a certain English civil engineer patiently standing beside the bench. Think favorably about his life and what he has done for our city, and by the way, also about us.
We wish you a magical Winter, a happy Christmas, and all the best in 2015!
The Board of Societas Lindleiana,
