Attractions of Chernivtsi region

Since 2004, the Literary and Memorial Museum of the outstanding writer Yuriy Fedkovych has been located in Chernivtsi in the building where he spent the last years of his life at the end of the 19th century and also edited the Bukovyna newspaper.

In the memorial room, the interior of the newspaper editorial office, Fedkovych's workplace, is reproduced. The room-apartment presents the writer's personal belongings, his desk-bureau, early editions of outstanding works of art, musical instruments, and household items.

In the literary exhibition of the museum, the life and creative path of Yuriy Fedkovych, as well as the public and pedagogical activities of the writer, are widely covered.

The manor of the Ukrainian writer Osyp-Yuriy Fedkovych family is located in the very center of Putyla.

The original wooden house in which the future writer was born and raised was built at the end of the 18th century. In the post-war years, a new building was built on the site of the manor that burned down, which housed the museum's administration and the literary section, which tells about the creative life of the writer. In 1974, the manor itself was reconstructed.

Yuriy Fedkovych's family house is a typical Hutsul wooden house, slightly elongated compared to the usual ones, without additional buildings. The three-log house in plan, built of spruce logs, consists of a hall and two rooms: a small living room and a living room.

Today, the Fedkovych estate is a real ethnographic museum of the Hutsul region. Here you can familiarize yourself with national costumes, everyday life, the main types of Hutsul art, from wooden carved utensils to the architecture of a residential building.

Near the manor there is a well, from which Yuriy Fedkovych himself drank water, opposite the entrance to the museum - his bust.

The Yuriy Fedkovych Manor Museum in Putyla is a department of the Chernivtsi Regional Museum of Local Lore.
