Eight valuable archaeological sites in Kyiv have been included in the State Register of Immovable Monuments of Ukraine. The relevant list of objects was approved by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine on June 13, 2024, No. 701

It is noted that there are 8 objects of cultural heritage in Kyiv:

• The archaeological complex of the St. Cyril's Monastery, twelfth century;
• cultural layer of the monastery of the XII-XIII centuries, XII-XVIII centuries;
  
• Necropolis of St. Cyril's Monastery, twelfth century;
  
• The complex of the cave monastery in the estate of St. Cyril's Church, twelfth century;
  
• remains of the monastery buildings, walls and the Gate Church with the bell tower of St. Cyril's Monastery, second half of the seventeenth century;
  
• Smorodynskyi archaeological complex, IV-III millennia BC;

These sites are extremely valuable to our culture and history. They are living testimonies of past eras and reflect the diversity of our national heritage. The inclusion of these sites in the register is an important step in preserving and researching our history. It is also a confirmation of our commitment to future generations to preserve and research unique monuments to better understand our past and shape our future. I believe that the inclusion of these sites will stimulate new scientific research and open up new opportunities for scholars and cultural experts to learn about our multilayered cultural heritage
