We will visit the Molokan house-museum and acquaint ourselves with the culture and way of life of the Russian Old Believer community.
We will learn about the history of the village of Fioletovo and have the opportunity to buy local delicacies: the famous Molokan pickled cabbage, pickles, jams, dumplings...
