Museum of Wooden Architecture
Museum of Wooden Architecture, Open-air wooden architecture museum in Suzdal, Russia.
The museum complex extends along the Kamenka River, featuring twenty preserved wooden structures including houses, churches, barns, and windmills from local villages.
Founded in 1775, the museum occupies the former site of the 11th-century Suzdal Dmitrievsky Monastery and displays buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries.
The museum exhibits dual churches, with the winter Church of Transfiguration from 1756 and summer Church of Resurrection from 1776 reflecting Orthodox architectural traditions.
The museum operates daily from 9:00 to 19:00 in summer and closes at 16:00 in winter, with entrance fees of 200 rubles per person.
The water well features a large wheel that villagers operated by running inside it, serving as a social gathering point where women observed potential husbands.
