Attractions of Nahuievychi

The Ivan Franko Literary and Memorial Museum-Manor was created in the writer's homeland in the village of Nahuievychi.

He was born here in 1856 in the family of a blacksmith, spent his childhood, and then repeatedly returned to his native places. In his works, he vividly described his childhood memories, when he spent time in his father's forge as a child.

The first exhibition was opened in 1946 in the small house of the writer's nephew. Later, on the site of Franko's estate, his parents' house with cozy rooms was recreated according to his descriptions and photographs. In the colorful yard - a stable, a forge, a shed with tools and an apiary.

Opposite is the building of the Literary and Memorial Museum with an exhibition of the first editions of the writer's works, next to which is the sculptural group "Ivan Franko and World Literature".

At the entrance to the village of Nahuievychi, as well as in Franko's garden, carved wooden sculptures symbolizing ideals, literary heroes and close people of the writer have been installed.

The ecological and educational route "Ivan Franko Trail" on the outskirts of the village of Nahuievychi is an art-memorial complex created in 1981 in the park area at the entrance to the village from the Drohobych side.

Wooden sculptures of characters from the writer's works are placed along the picturesque forest alley. Along the two-kilometer route, you can visit the "Field of Fairy Tales" with wooden sculptures of the heroes of Franko's fairy tales, the Chapel of the Nativity of the Virgin, the Summer Theater, the bridge.

Oaks, firs, ash trees, maples, beeches and spruces are found in the forest. There are places for rest.

The Church of the Transfer of the Relics of the Saint Father Nicholas is the only wooden church preserved in Nahuievychi from pre-Soviet times.

The church was built in 1801 on the place where, according to legend, the ancient Bashiv monastery was located, burned by the Tatars in the 17th century. The temple is three-log, single-domed, very simple in architecture. Built by masters Ivan Panas and Ivan Dumak. A small three-tier bell tower is nearby.
