The 8 Best Specialty Museums in Suzdal, Central Russia

June 7, 2021 Marissa Gamble

Historic Suzdal is one of Russia’s oldest settlements, dating back to early the 11th century. It’s a serene and charming place, offering a latticework of unpaved paths that wind by churches with candy-colored domes, rustic wooden structures and cinematic meadows. Sip some local medovukha honey cider for a true taste of the region.

The Convent of the Intercession (Pokrovsky Monastery)

Reviewed By margaretw818 - Launceston, Australia

The white buildings contrast with the bright flower gardens tended by the nuns. If you are fortunate enough to visit during a service you will experience the melodic singing of the nuns. Women need to cover their heads before entering the church.

Museum of Wooden Architecture

Reviewed By alexey2612 - Moscow, Russia

It is one of the best open-air museums of wooden architechture in Russia. If we are talking about the close proximity to Moscow, probably it is the museum you should visit. As for the museum, you can visit different churches - winter and summer one, as well as different housing types - for rich and poor peasants. I was there with a large group that had a guided tour so my visit was quite long and it was worth it.
