What to Expect
Ivanovka is all about the heritage of Molokan people – you will feel in a different atmosphere as you travel to Ivanovka and along its streets. Make sure to try local dishes and buy some organic dairy products from local farmers – you will definitely come back for more!
History
The village was founded in 1834 by Molokans from central Russia, who were resettled to the Caucasus by Russian Tsar. It was named Ivanovka after the founder and established a collective farm (kolkhoz), which operates up to this day and is the only remaining kolkhoz in the region.
