Putski Museum of local lore. PS Bakhlykova

As you know, the entire population of indigenous peoples is divided into several groups depending on the place of residence. To study the life and culture of the Eastern group of the Yugan Khanty, it is worth visiting the local history Museum in the small village of Ugut in the Surgut district. This is one of the oldest museums. It has been operating since 1979. And it was founded by local historian, honored worker of culture of the Russian Federation and Khanty-Mansi Autonomous PS Baklykov, whose name appears in the name of the Museum. What will you find in this Museum? First of all, there are interesting permanent exhibitions. «People of the Yugan river», «artist's Workshop», «the World around us: the living nature of Yugan» – all these collections form the basis of the Museum's funds, and therefore represent the main value. For example, the collection of household utensils of the Eastern Khanty is considered the most complete and unique in the district. In addition to them, the Museum presents rare items from the time of Ivan the terrible, as well as a gilded silver Cup made by Byzantine masters of the 15th century, precious jewelry of the 16th century. A separate place is occupied by painting and iconography. In this hall you will see original genre paintings and landscapes written by the founder of the Museum. Those who like to study history and visit iconic places should definitely pay attention to excursions in Ugut. Together with the guide, you will pass or drive by car through the most interesting places of the village.
