Verkhovyna is one of the largest Hutsul regions in the Carpathians. It is here, living in an area remote from large settlements, that over the centuries the locals have been best able to preserve their traditions and protect them from the influence of the “outside world”. Today, the museum has eight halls on the ground floor and the Hutsul Room on the second floor. The exhibition halls present the main thematic sections about the region of ethnic Hutsulshchyna: local lore, history, natural history, material and spiritual culture, festivals, population, diaspora, Hutsul economy, folk arts and crafts, science, culture, weaving, and ethnography of Hutsulshchyna.
