Ivanovka

İvanovka

A village founded in the 19th century by Russian Molokan migrants, with neat wooden houses. It still retains a collective-farm style of organization and produces honey and village wine.

Ivanovka lies in Ismayilli District and was founded in the 1840s. Most residents are descendants of Molokans, a Russian religious minority exiled by the Tsarist government. The village has neat wooden houses with blue window frames and broad streets. It preserves a rare collective-farm style of management and produces dairy products, honey and wine. Visitors can stroll around the village, tour the farm and a small museum, or eat Russian home cooking at a farmhouse. It lies about 30 km from Gabala and can be arranged on the way to the Savalan Winery or to Lahij.
