The museum of Folk Architecture and Life was created in 1977. It is placed on the slopes of big ravine on the Moskovska Olimpiada street.
Museum territory is open-air and there are more than thirty wooden structures: Two-story mills from the village Rukshyn in the Hotyn region and from the village Shishkovtsi in Novoselytsja region, forge, wooden St. Nikolay's Church from the village Drachyntsi in Kitsmanets region, a wooden frame bellows from Beregomet. In a temple icons made in a style of so called “Bukovinian primitive” and a collection of sacral painting are presented.
The habitation is presented by three country manors – from the house of the poor farmer to the prosperous peasant. Houses are altered into museum rooms where you can find one and a half thousand exhibits: carpets and ceramics, clothes and agricultural implements.

In its one part sessions of rural deputies were held, in another part the gendarmerie and apartment of the chief of gendarmerie took places. Every year Skansen organize public celebrations which gathers many spectators.
