Kryvorivnia is an ancient Carpathian village, which the famous ethnographer Volodymyr Hnatiuk called "Ukrainian Athens" as a place of inspiration for the creative intelligentsia.
It is located 5 kilometers east of Verkhovyna, at the bend of the Black Cheremosh River, in a picturesque valley at the foot of Varityn Mountain and the Igrets Ridge. Known since the 17th century. The "controversial" name is probably due to the fact that in this place the sharp bends of the river bed are combined with flat parts of the valley.

Kryvorivnia is an ancient Carpathian village, which the famous ethnographer Volodymyr Hnatiuk called "Ukrainian Athens" as a place of inspiration for the creative intelligentsia.
It is located 5 kilometers east of Verkhovyna, at the bend of the Black Cheremosh River, in a picturesque valley at the foot of Varityn Mountain and the Igrets Ridge. Known since the 17th century. The "controversial" name is probably due to the fact that in this place the sharp bends of the river bed are combined with flat parts of the valley.
In 1719, the wooden church of the Nativity of the Virgin was laid, rebuilt in its present form in 1818.
The glory of the center of Ukrainian culture came at the beginning of the 20th century, when Ivan Franko began to visit it regularly on vacation - a museum was opened in his house. Lesya Ukrayinka, Olha Kobylyanska, Vasyl Stefanyk, Kostyantyn Stanislavskyi, Mykhaylo Drahomanov, Volodymyr Nemyrovych-Danchenko, Mykhaylo Hrushevskyi, Mykhaylo Stelmakh, Andriy Malyshko, Dmytro Pavlychko and others also visited here at different times.
Now Kryvorivnia is turning into a museum village. There are 14 ethnographic and historical-biographical museums: the museum "Hutsulska grazhda", the museum of Hutsul life, the house-museum of Mykhaylo Hrushevskyi.
On the last Sunday of June, the national holiday "Provody na poloninu" is held.
Криворівня - старовинне карпатське село, яке відомий етнограф Володимир Гнатюк назвав "українськими Афінами" як місце натхнення творчої інтелігенції.
Розташоване в 5 кілометрах на схід від Верховини, на вигині річки Чорний Черемош, в мальовничій долині біля підніжжя гори Варітин і хребта Ігрець. Відоме з XVII сторіччя. "Суперечлива" назва, ймовірно, пов'язана з тим, що в цьому місці різкі вигини русла річки поєднуються з рівними ділянками долини.
В 1719 році закладена дерев'яна церква Різдва Богородиці, в нинішньому вигляді відбудована в 1818 році.

Слава центру української культури прийшла на початку XX століття, коли тут став регулярно бувати на відпочинку Іван Франко - в його будинку відкрито музей. У різний час тут також бували Леся Українка, Ольга Кобилянська, Василь Стефаник, Костянтин Станіславський, Михайло Драгоманов, Володимир Немирович-Данченко, Михайло Грушевський, Михайло Стельмах, Андрій Малишко, Дмитро Павличко та інші.
Зараз Криворівня перетворюється на село-музей. Діють 14 етнографічних і історико-біографічних музеїв: музей "Гуцульська ґражда", музей гуцульського побуту, будинок-музей Михайла Грушевського.
В останню неділю червня проходить народне свято "Проводи на полонину".
Museum "Khata-Grazhda"
Architecture , Museum / gallery
The "Khata-Grazhda" museum was created in Kryvorivnia on the basis of one of the few examples of this typical Hutsul house-fortress, built in 1858.
Residential and commercial buildings with hollow outer walls surround a small courtyard, forming a closed space. Grazhdas served to protect against enemies, wild animals and bad weather.
At the end of the 19th century, the Kryvorivnia Grazhda belonged to the Kharuk family, who were often visited by the writer Ivan Franko and the ethnographer Volodymyr Hnatyuk.
In 1964, this Khata-Grazhda was used during the filming of the film "Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors". Since 1984, the house has been empty. In 1993, it was restored and opened as a museum.
Exhibitions of paintings and photographs are held.
Museum "Khata-Grazhda" is a branch of the Ivano-Frankivsk Museum of Local Lore.
Nativity of the Holy Virgin Church
Temple , Architecture
The wooden Church of the Nativity of the Holy Virgin in Kryvorivnia was founded in 1719, and was rebuilt in its present form in 1818. Tempera paintings of the 19th century have been preserved.
The Church is considered one of the best examples of the Hutsul school of folk architecture. There is a legend according to which it was in this church that Oleksa Dovbush, the people's avenger and leader of the Carpathian opryshkas, met and fell in love with the girl Dzvinka, who later betrayed him.
Thanks to the efforts of the abbot of the Church of the Nativity of the Holy Virgin, Ivan Rybaruk, the church has been restored to its authentic appearance - now, as before, it is covered with shingles, not tin, like most of the present-day Carpathian churches.
