Khokholsky District

Khokholsky District is an administrative area in northwest Voronezh Oblast with mixed settlement structure including one urban center and multiple rural villages spread across the landscape. The territory consists of numerous inhabited localities arranged in a flat, largely agricultural terrain.

The district was established in 1935 as an administrative unit during Soviet territorial reorganization. The area subsequently experienced demographic shifts typical of rural regions in the following decades.

The Kostenski Archaeological Museum displays findings from early human settlements and attracts visitors interested in the region's prehistoric past.

The administrative center of Khokholsky provides visitor services and local information typical of such facilities. Summer and autumn offer better weather conditions for exploring this flat agricultural region.

The region is among Europe's archaeologically significant areas with sites showing traces of human habitation from the Ice Age. This makes it a special destination for archaeology enthusiasts and those interested in prehistoric human history.
