On the territory of the museum, there are several wooden houses with carved window frames and facades, as well as a bathhouse from the second half of the 19th century, heated by a black stove, and a hewn well. This well, brought from the village of Selivanovo, is a typical wheel well from the 17th century and harmoniously complements the rural landscape.
Behind the houses rise two windmills, which are examples of wooden architecture from the 18th century. Next to them is a barn from the 19th century, which was used for storing grain and other products. Completing the rural composition are two grain drying structures located on the outskirts of the museum territory. These buildings were used for drying grain and consist of two tiers: the lower tier houses a stove, while the upper tier is for drying sheaves.
Today, visitors to the museum can not only stroll among the unique exhibits and enjoy their beauty but also participate in a crafts festival. During this event, one can observe the work of masters of ancient Russian crafts and try their hand at various activities. You will have the opportunity to engage in coin minting, weaving, wood painting, pottery, and many other crafts.
The Suzdal Museum of Wooden Architecture is not just a reconstructed old Russian village with magnificent examples of wooden architecture but a true portal to the past.
