Khokhlovka

Khokhlovka is an open-air museum located on a hill near the Kama River, housing 23 wooden buildings from the Perm region including churches, residences, and mills. The structures come from different villages and periods across the area.

The site opened in 1980 after architect Alexander Terekhin initiated a project to preserve traditional wooden structures from the region. The collection began with buildings facing demolition that were relocated from their original locations.

The complex represents different areas of the Prikamye region through preserved structures that convey hunting practices, farming methods, and salt production traditions. Visitors can observe how communities once lived and worked through the buildings.

Visitors can explore the grounds on marked pathways and should wear sturdy shoes since terrain can be uneven. Plan to spend about 2 to 3 hours for a full walk-through to see the buildings.

The collection includes a rare Ural watchtower from Torgovishche village that once protected Kungur city. A notable find is a 1906 fire station with an observation tower, an unusual example of that era's infrastructure.
