Museum of Hutsul life, Krasnyk

The museum has been open since 2011. It is housed in a Hutsul house, which was built in 2009 on the model of the eighteenth century.

A local host, Mr. Vasyl, conducts master classes using ancient Hutsul household utensils. These include:

• grinding corn into flour on millstones;
• making woolen thread with the help of a reel, spindle, samotoka and kuzhel;
• breaking flax grains into flour in a mortar;
• making oil from flaxseed flour in an oil mill;
• making cheese.

The workshops are usually held in the hayloft.

In the room itself, you can see traditional wooden utensils. For example: a berbenytsia, a beryvka, a milking machine, a kufel, a konovka, etc. Some of them are about a hundred years old. There is also a working stove, accessories, a wooden bed, table, chairs, bedspreads, icons by a local artist, and a traditional musical instrument - the telinka. For example: a mortar and pestle and oil mill.

In the museum, you can also try on and take pictures in Hutsul outfits for men and women, but it costs 25 UAH per person.

Excursion: free of charge only for those staying at the Krynta cottage.
