In 1902 a museum was founded in Horodok by Teodor Shteingel, an alumnus of the University of Kyiv, who donated his valuable archaeological, historical and ethnographic collections from Volhynia, including finds from Rus'-era tombs excavated at Studynets in modern-day Rivne Oblast. The museum functioned in the building of a former Greek Catholic monastery until the First World War.
