The Istorychniy Muzei station is located deep underground and is a pylon trivault and was designed by V.A.

Istorychniy Muzei forms a complex with the adjacent Maidan Konstytutsii station on the Kholodnohirsko-Zavodska Line.

Also, four escalators lead into a spacious underground vestibule which is located under the Constitution Square.

In 1985, during the finishing of the transfer tunnel between the Istorychniy Muzei and Maidan Konstytutsii stations, a closed-circuit television (CCTV) system was installed, the first in the Kharkiv Metro.

The installation of this system allowed the workers of the metro to keep passengers in order and maintain more effective control over the escalators.
