      • The Wooden Architecture Museum was created in the park by the monastery in the 1970s.
      • The chapel was brought from the village of Sokolniki in the Chekhov district, and the peasant homestead of the 1830s–1840s from the village of Vykhino, now a district of Moscow.
      • The windmill is from the village of Kochemlevo in the Tver region; in August 2020 its sails collapsed.
      • The museum's wooden church burned down in 2000.
      • One of the towers of the monastery wall is also called Gethsemane: the towers got Palestinian names, probably in the 18th century.
