Хата-музей кінофільму «Тіні забутих предків», Film museum in Verkhovyna, Ukraine
The Hata Museum is a film museum in a mountain house in Verkhovyna that displays costumes, photographs, and objects from the production of a 1964 Ukrainian film. The house served as both residence and workspace for the film crew during filming.
The house became a film production center around 1964 when a Soviet director and crew worked there to create a film about traditional mountain culture. The museum itself was established in 2000 to preserve this production history.
The house displays traditional clothing and household items from the Hutsul mountain region that shaped the film's visual identity. Visitors experience firsthand how these objects defined the everyday life shown on screen.
The museum requires advance booking, so visitors should arrange a visit ahead of time to ensure access. The opportunity to wear traditional clothing and take photographs makes a planned visit worthwhile.
The film crew worked in the mountains and collaborated with local residents to film traditional wedding ceremonies and rituals authentically. This close partnership with the community gave the work its genuine character that audiences still recognize today.
