Attractions of Putyla

The Saint Nicholas Church is located in the center of Putyla, next to the museum-manor of Yuriy Fedkovych, who at one time allocated land and money for its construction.

It is a typical Bukovyna three-tiered church. The wooden church has a rectangular vestibule, a square nave and a faceted altar, covered by three almost identical tops, the middle of which is slightly higher and more slender than the others. On both sides of the nave, faceted-shaped parapets are attached, which gives the temple an almost cruciform appearance.

The two-tiered belfry, the walls of which are also covered with wood, and the top of the tent with sheet metal, harmoniously complements the church and together with it forms a whole temple architectural ensemble.

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.
