It is a nice museum of wooden architecture not far from St.
Yury's Monastery in the outskirts of Novgorod the Great on the place of the former village of Vitoslavlitsy.
The village was founded in the 12th century. On the territory of the museum one
can see traditional Russian wooden houses as they looked in the 14th- 19th centuries.
The museum was created in 1964, when the old wooden church of Assumption was moved to
this place.
