Audiotur Open-air museum of wooden architecture

The open-air Museum of Wooden Architecture is part of the Kolomenskoe Museum-Reserve. It was created on the basis of wooden monuments of defense architecture, transported to the capital in the 1920s and 1930s by the famous architect-restorer and the first director of the museum-reserve Peter Baranovsky. The museum includes several monuments of the XV-XVII centuries: the Wooden Church of Great Martyr St. George the Victorious, the Tower of the Nikolo-Korelsky Monastery, the Mokhovaya Tower of the Suma stockaded fort, the Tower of the Bratsk stockaded fort and the Mead Brewery.

You can learn more about these monuments on our guided tour ‘Surviving Russian wooden architecture monuments at Kolomenskoe’.
