IT 8-bit
IT 8-bit was a computer museum in Mariupol, Ukraine. It was founded by Dmitry Cherepanov.[1][2][3] Before it’s destruction by the Russian aggressors, it used to be one of the largest privately owned computer museums in Ukraine.[4]
The museum contained many computers from the Soviet Union.[5]
The building housing the museum, which contained more than 500 exhibits,[2] was destroyed during Siege of Mariupol in the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[4]
