Small Karelians or Korels and why. Malye Korely - the main museum of wooden architecture in Russia

Small Karelians or Korels and why. Malye Korely - the main museum of wooden architecture in Russia

On this page:

Even those who have little idea of ​​the location of the Russian North know about Malye Korely in Russia. This is really the main local attraction. I have not been to Korely - I have not been to Arkhangelsk!

The territories that make up the current Arkhangelsk and Vologda regions have always been the center of the traditions of wooden architecture in Russia. But the realities are such that more and more villages in the local demuchy forests are losing their last inhabitants, and wooden monuments are decaying, decrepit and left unattended. The most interesting of them, who have been lucky enough not to burn or rot, are disassembled and transported to Malye Korely.

Of course, by means of such transportation, temples and huts are "torn from their roots" and become dull museum exhibits. After all, the lion's share of their beauty and charm is not the building itself, but its surroundings, the way it fits into the landscape. Move the same temples or a museum and they will lose all their extraordinary charm.

But most of the Korelian exhibits had a simple choice: either complete destruction or a museum. So thanks for that.

Malye Korely Museum

The entire exposition of the museum is divided into three parts: Kargopol-Onega, Dvinskaya, Pinezhskaya and Mezenskaya. These regions of the Russian North were distinguished by traditions and way of life, and accordingly the architecture in them was different.

Let's start with the Kargopol-Onega sector, as the most familiar to us from our current and past trips. The weather even from Onega was rolling downhill and towards Korely turned into a real northern autumn with freezing rain and clouds touching the ground. But what to do, we had one single day on Korela.

Kargopol-Onega sector

At the entrance we are greeted by a traditional Russian hedge made of oblique branches, and behind it, a museum employee mows with a lawn mower nothing more than flax, one of the main northern agricultural crops.

On the edge of the hill stands a massive tower with a dome absurdly slapped right onto the tent. This is one of the oldest preserved wooden bell towers in Russia, built in the 16th century. The "ancestors" of such archaic bell towers were the watchtowers of forts and fortresses.

This bell tower was transported from the village with the wonderful name of Kuliga-Drakovanovo: the head of the Serpent Gorynych will look out from behind the ancient logs.

Move on. A traditional northern chapel with a gallery is hidden in the grove. In a non-museum state, such chapels usually stand already without any galleries and bells and look like a simple log house in an open field. There are still many of them throughout the Russian North.

Next to the chapel in a clearing is the hut of a simple Kargopol peasant, Poluyanov, from the village of Gar. Kargopol Sush 'at all times was the poorest part of the Russian North, the peasants here could hardly make ends meet.

Living here is only the front log house for one room, and the entire rear part of the house is a covered utility yard. To preserve heat, cattle yards and farm yards in the north are attached directly to a residential hut so that the passage between them is under a roof. The more severe the climate, the larger the yard: livestock live there, hay is stored, all household work is done.

A wooden pipe sticks out of the roof of the hut, because this is not a pipe at all, but a kind of ventilation. This hut is smoked, that is, it was heated in black, without a chimney.

To prevent smoke from walking throughout the hut, special shelves were made at the level of human growth. The photo clearly shows that above them the walls are smoky, and below them they are clean.

Poluyanov was rather poor, so his utensils were quite simple.

The center of the Kargopol-Onega exposition is the cubic church of the Assumption of the Lord in 1669 from the seaside village of Kushereka. Once Kushereka lived by catching salmon, navaga, whitefish, at the beginning of the 20th century there were almost 2000 inhabitants. By 2010, there were 7 of them.

On the porch of the church there is one of the museum guardians. These curators not only sit in every hut and church, but also gladly tell about the history of the museum and the "sponsored" exhibit. Very good!

Next to the temple is the massive house of Pukhov from the village of Bolshoy Khaluy in Oshevensk. This is the house of a wealthy peasant, consisting of two log cabins.

But that's not all: behind the house is an equally impressive courtyard. Pukhov's farm was large, there were a lot of cattle, so an appropriate yard was needed.

Pukhov was an Old Believer, like many of his fellow villagers who fled to the north after the split. The house has a separate prayer room.

Dvina sector

We cross the bridge over the ravine from the Kargopol part to the Dvina part. There are buildings brought from the villages of the Northern Dvina and Vologda regions.

In the center is the St. George Church of 1672 from the Solvychegodsky district. At the heart of the temple is the same archaic octahedral frame, but the light gallery surrounding it changes the whole picture. In general, many hipped-roof churches used to have such gulbische galleries, but almost all of them were removed during the last restorations of the 19th century, when the fashion for stone churches forced the villagers to sheathe their churches with planks and whitewash them.

A very beautiful temple.

The Dvinsk village begins behind the church. The architecture here is completely different: the huts become two-storey "six-walled" houses, summer lights crawl under the roof and acquire flirty balconies, and the porches leading directly to the second floor stand on massive "legs". At the same time, courtyard houses are becoming larger and larger.

On the left, in the far half - a summer hut, on the right, with small windows - a winter one. In winter, even the owners of such large houses lived with their whole family in one room.

A very interesting building in the Dvinskaya part is the house of the peasant-merchant Tropin. This is a huge two-story domina, where Tropin lived with his family and household, and on the ground floor he kept a tavern. The house was heated by a heating system from a Russian stove and Dutch stoves.

It's just a huge house - the shirik reduces everything, but in fact it is the size of half a five-story building.

Nearby there is a small house, much less - Shestakov's house-yard from the village of Tsivozero. It is interesting with an ancient casing above the window. It is called "ochelya".

We pass along the forest path to the Pinega sector. There are buildings from villages on the Pinega River.

Pinega sector

A line of grain barns meets us. Barns in Russia were built far from houses and the entire village, so that in the event of a fire, the most important wealth - seed grain - would not burn out.

The barns were placed on the legs to protect the grain from dampness and all sorts of mice. It seems to me that this is where the "hut on chicken legs" started.

The huts of the Pinega sector are all closed and somehow abandoned. We go past the barns and mowing huts: if the peasant mowing was far from the village, then they built a separate dwelling there and moved there for the entire mowing period.

In the North, everything is wooden, even a well bucket:

Mezen sector

On the very edge of the ravine, as on the seashore, there are huge houses-ships of the Mezen part. These are the largest and most prosperous farms in the Russian North. Once upon a time, the Pomors who lived in them were engaged in fishing, hunting for sea animals and were the richest northerners.

As you can see in the photo below, the Mezen courtyards were even larger than the already rather big houses. This was explained by the harsh climate and the fact that in winter these yards were built Pomor boats - karbas.

Karbas is not some kind of boat, but a full-fledged sailing ship, on which the Pomors went far out to sea.

The wealthy Mezenians decorated their houses as much as possible: we have already seen the same painting on the slopes on the still houses in the village.

It starts pouring rain again - we go back.

At the exit from the museum there is a "collection" of windmills. They are no longer left in the "living nature" and therefore they look somehow sham.

We have one more item planned for today - the oldest of the remaining tent-roofed temples in Russia.

Nikolsky temple in the village of Lylyavia

The village of Lavia on the river of the same name is located just a couple of minutes drive from Malye Korel. Here, on the high Lyavlensky hill, as usual, there is a picturesque wooden tent-roofed temple, built in 1581.

It is the very archaic "tower" form that underlies all tent-roofed churches. Just a tower-eight, crowned with a tent - "eight from the seam".

In the middle of the 19th century, the temple fell into disrepair, so that services were even stopped there. But then an amazing case helped: the wife of the Arkhangelsk military governor, the Marquis de Traversay, had a vision that her sick son would recover if the governor restored the Lavlensky temple.

The governor restored the temple, but the work was done, what can I say, quite carelessly. The rotted lower rims, along with the gallery encircling the temple, were simply thrown out, and the temple lost almost a third of its original 40-meter height. Therefore, he now looks so disproportionately overweight. And it was, it must be understood, very similar to the piercingly beautiful temple in Piala.

Now the church is closed to visitors, but we were lucky: some kind of caretaker just came and let us in: inside is absolutely empty (nothing of the decoration of the temple has survived), only the original 16th century dome, removed during the restoration, stands.

It can be seen that to facilitate the construction, the dome is chopped through one log. The tent is also cut.

The place on Lyavoensky Hill is magical - once upon a time there was a large monastery on the high bank of the Northern Dvina.

And now the pipes of Novodvinsk are just smoking on the other side and the men are putting nets on the river for salmon.

At this point, I ask you to consider our current trip to the North as finished, the next day we were awaited by the M8 highway that surprised us from an incomprehensible source of quality to Moscow.

All previous episodes of our northern journey, as well as a detailed route, can be found here.

February 14th, 2017

Arkhangelsk is not only a big city at the mouth of the Northern Dvina. It is also the center of a large region, with an area one and a half times larger than Germany (yes, European countries are a unit of measurement for Russian territories!). The Arkhangelsk region is rich in ancient villages and wooden architecture, which is presented in an open-air museum operating since 1973, 20 kilometers from the regional center. Despite the name, wooden architecture is Russian, like the majority of the region's population. The name of the museum comes from the village of Malye Karely, where it is located (the name of the village has a spelling through A). However, first things first.

You can get to the museum from the city by bus from the MRV (sea-river station). 22 kilometers along the road along the right bank of the Northern Dvina through several villages. This road continues far to the east, first along the Dvina, then along the Pinega, and so on to the Mezen itself (it was completed there recently). But on the bus I was traveling on, the village of Malye Karely is the final one. Although the village itself is small, a significant part of the passengers travel to it - perhaps the museum is popular and just as a good place to walk.

2. The Malye Karelians themselves look like this. Despite the name, this village is Russian, like almost the entire Arkhangelsk region. However, once these lands were inhabited by the Finno-Ugric tribes, already many hundreds of years ago assimilated by the Russians. Including the Korela tribe (the ancestors of modern Karelians), from which the Korelka (Korely) river, which flows here into the Dvina, was named. In the neighborhood there is also the village of Bolshiye Karely, which is, however, about the same size.

3. The village is small, and probably many of the houses are dachas of residents of Arkhangelsk and Severodvinsk. The flow of cars along the road is quite busy, and maybe one of them drives even to the distant Mezen ...

4. Hut with the sun under the ridge of the roof. This is a typically northern tradition that I have observed in.

5. And this is how the bus stop looks like in Malye Kareli. Also, however, wooden architecture!

But now let's go to the museum. It is quite large (an area of ​​140 hectares, much larger than a village) and has about a hundred wooden buildings brought here from different places in the Arkhangelsk region. To bring the atmosphere closer to the real, the museum, as is usually the case, is inscribed in the surrounding nature - wooden buildings stand under the arches of a coniferous forest. According to the geographical division of the Arkhangelsk region, the museum is divided into four sectors - Onega-Kargopol, Dvinskaya, Pinezhsky and Mezensky.

6. The first to meet the Onega-Kargopol sector (reflecting the western part of the region) and the bell tower of the Ascension Church from the village of Kushereka (Onega region), built in the middle of the 19th century.

7. The Church of the Ascension itself is older - 1699. The architecture is typical for Ponezhie - a five-domed cubic volume, the same construction is a church in the village of Arkhangel.

8. And this is already an artifact of a much later era - a tent-roofed windmill of 1902 from the Kozheozersky Epiphany Monastery (located in the wilderness of the Onega region and is now being revived after decades of desolation).

9. Inside the mill:

10. Another windmill - from the south-west of the region, from the village of Bolshaya Shalga, Kargopol region. One of the wings, apparently, was removed for restoration.

11. And this is already a residential building - the house-yard of Pukhov from the village of Oshevensk (or rather, the village of Bolshoy Khaluy) of the Kargopol region, where I never got there. Residential buildings in the Russian North are huge and sometimes harsh in their appearance. Firstly, the residential part is divided into winter and summer, and secondly, it is combined with the economic part. In cold climates, everything is under one roof!

12. Against the background of the forest - the chapel of Elijah the Prophet (late 18th century) from the now deserted village of Mamonov Island on Kenozero (Plesetsk district).

14. The landscape is quite hilly. It seems that there are ski slopes a little further than the museum. However, this was not relevant in the summer.

15. This is a ravine, along the bottom of which a stream flows. I was in Malye Korely on 18 July. It's funny, but this is not the first year in a row that I find myself in a place with long wooden stairs on this very date.

17. The next sector is Dvinskaya. Again, several wooden buildings collected in one place actually recreate the whole look of the village.

18. House-yard of Shchegolev (1826) from the village of Irta on the banks of the Vychegda river in the Lensky district (regional center - the village of Yarensk), not far from Kotlas. This hut is no longer five-walled, but six-walled, with two parallel intersections.

19. On the left - a windmill of the second half of the 19th century from the village of Medlesha (Shenkurskiy district).

20. Other buildings of the country estate: in the foreground there is a smoke sauna, and on the far right is a barn. e a bottom for storing food.

21. Two more six-walled residential buildings: Turobov's house (1820s, also from the Irta village) and Tsigarev's house (19th century, Vyemkovo village, Lensky district).

22. In the center of the Dvinsky sector - the Church of St. George the Victorious (17th century, the village of Vershino, Verkhnetoemsky region). This is already a tent structure (as, for example, in the village of Saunino near Kargopol).

23. And this is Shestakov's house from the village of Tsivozero, Krasnoborsk district (1861). It is small because it is only a part of a whole hut in the past, divided during its restructuring.

24. Porch. The house is closed since I was here on Monday, when the interior exhibitions are closed. In general, in the outback of the Russian North, in many villages it is not even customary to lock houses ...

26. Windows in the northern huts. usually small:

27. And this is Tropinin's estate from the village of Semushinskaya, Ustyansky District. The owner was a well-to-do man.

28. Even the ridge of the roof is two-headed!

29. Ermolin's estate (1880, the village of Krivets, Kholmogorsky district). The hut is five-walled, and not so huge anymore.

30.On the reverse side, a barn adjoins the residential part:

31. The owner of the estate was a blacksmith, so there is a rural smithy in the backyard:

32. And this is Rusinov's house (19th century, nowadays uninhabited village of Kondratovskaya, Verkhnetoemsky district). Of course, there are also wooden walkways.

33. Rye grows behind the house:

34. And again the forest. The next sector is Pinezhsky. It was in it at the time of my visit that it was the least crowded, most of all mosquitoes, and it was at the moment of arrival there that the sun disappeared behind the clouds. The Pinega sector in the entire museum seemed to me somehow especially detached and mysterious - as, probably, the Pinega Territory itself is in dense and hard-to-reach forests.

By the way, Siberian spruce grows near Arkhangelsk, as well as in North Karelia. But larch is not here, because the climate is slightly softened by the White Sea - it is found to the south, in the Plesetsk region, and to the east.

35. In the foreground - a barn from the village of Sura, Pinezhsky region (19th century), and to the far left - baths.

36. Several barns of the 19th century from the Pinezhsky region. "On chicken legs" they stand specifically so that rodents do not climb into them.

37. Residential buildings from the rear (utility) part. At the moment they are apparently under restoration.

38. The interior of the bath:

A short excursion around the Pinezhsky sector was given to me by a museum employee who herself comes from the Pinezhsky region (in ethnographic museums, including such, it is a fairly common practice to specially hire people from the relevant places). In her speech, I drew attention to the characteristic dialect (the pronunciation of the word "still" as "ishsho" was especially remembered).

39. At the edge of the forest stands the Holy Trinity Chapel (1728) from the village of Valtevo, Pinezhsky District.

40. In the foreground is the house of P.P. Filin (1876, the village of Gorodetsk, Pinezhsky district), and further - the house of Dorodnaya (early 20th century, the village of Sheimogory, Pinezhsky district).

41. Well - "crane". Nowadays, I rarely see such people in the villages, mostly in museums and in old photographs.

42. And in the forest there is a hunting storage:

43. There is also a hunting hut nearby:

44. Leaving the forest, we find ourselves in the Mezensky sector, dedicated to the most distant and difficult-to-reach land in the Arkhangelsk region, where I still definitely hope to get (Mezensky and Leshukonsky districts). The Mezen sector is located at the cliff - here the descent into the valley of the Northern Dvina begins.

45. House of a prosperous Mezen peasant:

46. ​​Another house is already six-walled. The cuts are located nearby.

47. Another six-walled Mezen hut:

48. And this one has five walls. With painted shutters and overhangs.

50. There are also barns nearby:

52. And the well:

53. At the end of the Mezen sector - a windmill from the village of Azapolye, Mezen district (19th century).

54. And a worship cross. For the Pomors, they also served as navigational signs and were placed on the seashore. If you see the cross directly from the front side, then you are looking east.

55. Picturesque ravines and forests are spread around:

56. And on the other hand - somewhere below the Northern Dvina, divided into many channels (the water, however, is not visible because of the trees). And on the other side is the city of Novodvinsk, a satellite of Arkhangelsk of 38 thousand inhabitants, and its city-forming enterprise - the gloomy Arkhangelsk Pulp and Paper Mill. This landscape reminded me of the view of the Kirovo-Chepetsk chemical plant from the high bank of the Vyatka.

Such is the museum display of the rural Arkhangelsk region next to its capital. The museum is constantly working to replenish its collection, now the Pomorsky and Vazhsky sectors are being created. So it is likely that it will get even more interesting in the future. This concludes the story about the Malye Korely Museum.

There are not so many open-air museums, and, as a rule, they are created so that the visitor can clearly see the life of the peoples who lived in a certain place or see the exhibits that people were able to create in past centuries, what has truly become the property ... For example, there is a very interesting Arkhangelsk Museum of Wooden Architecture "Malye Korely". In the Novgorod region there is a museum "Slavic village of the X century", and in Togliatti opened a technical museum of JSC "AvtoVAZ". But the museum of the Arkhangelsk region will be described in more detail. Enjoy your reading!

Description and location

In the seaside district of the Arkhangelsk region, or rather, in the Uyemsky rural settlement, there is an open-air museum, 25 km from the administrative city of the region.

The area of ​​the Arkhangelsk Museum "Malye Korely" is 139 hectares, where you can see the life of the former north, and this is actually the only place that tells about the life of former peoples. The entire museum was divided into several sectors, and excursions often take place in parts of the territory, such as, for example, the Mezen or Kargopol-Onega sector.

History

The Arkhangelsk State Museum of Wooden Architecture "Malye Korely" appeared not so long ago, or rather in 1963 at the initiative of the architect Lapin. However, its opening took place only 10 years later, because it was not easy to recreate everything that is presented today. Not only architects were involved in the creation of the museum, but also architects, artists, restorers, ethnographers, for whom it was very important to preserve the national heritage of the north of Russia and show it to tourists who come from all over our country and not only.

For example, from remote areas of the region, from villages and townships, some buildings were brought that were of historical value and have survived to this day.

In 1983 the museum was included in the list of European open-air museums, and in 1996 it was included in the list of important historical and valuable objects of the Russian Federation.

origin of name

Separately, it is worth mentioning the origin of the name, which the museum received thanks to the nearby village, Malye Karely, and a little further there are Bolshiye Karely.

Disputes often arise as to how Karelians are correctly spelled, through a or o, and where this word came from in general. Once upon a time, in the XII-XIV centuries, such peoples as the Korels of the Finno-Ugric tribe lived on the territory of the White Sea. It should be said that this is one of the factors that the word Korely must be written through "o", and in favor of this version, it is worth noting the river flowing near the museum, which was called Korelka, and now Korela.

Why do disputes arise? But because in the process of acania, the unstressed sound "o" turned into "a", which left a certain imprint.

Sightseeing excursions

Museum "Malye Korely" in Arkhangelsk, or rather not far from it, can be visited by everyone. Here you can just walk, or take an interesting excursion, of which there are quite a few.

Excursion "North Village" - captures several sectors of the museum and lasts about 3-4 hours. Here you can learn about the culture of the Russian North, get acquainted with the monuments of architecture and the way of life of the peasants of the region. For example, guests will be able to see the chapel of St. Macarius, the mill from the village of Azapolye, the house of Tropin from the village of Semuninskaya, and much more. You can find out about the cost at the ticket office of the museum; such an excursion is suitable for both adults and children.

The excursion "Traveling around Kargopol" will take about one hour, where you can get acquainted with the culture of the Russian North and see such buildings as Tretyakov's house, an architectural ensemble from the village of Kusherek, Pukhov's house. This excursion is part of the first sightseeing tour, so it may be better to take a sightseeing tour than such a small one. Also included are excursions such as "Travel along the Dvina" and "Travel along the Mezen".

There is a very interesting thematic excursion for schoolchildren in the Malye Korely museum, the photo of which can be seen on the Internet, called "On a visit to Daryushka", the duration of which will be 1 academic hour and will really please the children, where the hostess will talk about how the locals lived peoples, what was their way of life, what buildings were and what they played with the children.

Another interesting thematic excursion is "Unbelievable-unheard-of", which is suitable not only for schoolchildren, but also for students and adults. Here you can get acquainted with the traditions of the Arkhangelsk Territory, see the bell tower from the village of Kuliga-Drakovanovo, Popov's house, Tretyakov's house and a barn from the village of Kondratovskaya. The tour will be carried out in folk costumes and will take one hour.

There are also such thematic excursions as "Curl a birch tree, curl curly", "Northern Letchko", "Our village is more beautiful than cities", as well as a very interesting excursion "Wedding in the Northern Village".

It should be remembered that the Arkhangelsk Museum of Wooden Architecture "Malye Korely" is located in the open air, so it is important to dress for the weather, especially if it will be in winter or early spring. If you want to visit the museum in the summer, you should not forget to take mosquito repellent with you. And in winter, it is better to plan a visit for the first half of the day, while it is light.

Study in advance what exhibitions and events will take place, maybe something will not be interesting and it is better to reschedule your visit. The site sets up a work schedule for a month in advance and indicates which exhibitions are temporary and which are permanent. For example, the exhibition "The House of Pukhov" is permanent, but the exhibition "The Cross Image of the Russian North" is temporary and it may not be possible to visit it already in October.

If you go by car, there is a parking lot near the entrance of the museum where you can leave your car and not worry about a parking space.

Whether in winter or summer, you will be impressed by the open-air museum and will advise everyone of it as a must visit if you find yourself in the Arkhangelsk region.
