In Novoderevyankovskiy, local history comes to life at specific sites: a chapel recalls a former place of worship, a park commemorates the fallen, and a museum is housed in a historic school building. Visitors who value cultural and historical connections when choosing a destination will find several different points of interest here.
Chapel, memorial sites and museum
The Chapel of the Nativity of the Most Holy Mother of God was built in 2004 on the site of the former Church of the Nativity of the Most Holy Mother of God. The church was destroyed in 1928. These two dates tell the story of change at the same site: the lost church was followed decades later by a chapel bearing its name. This offers a way to explore local history through a tangible connection to the place, rather than through dates alone.
A mass grave for soldiers who fell in the Civil War and the Great Patriotic War is located in the Cultural and Recreation Park of the stanitsa of Novoderevyankovskaya. The memorial site thus commemorates the fallen from two different wars. It adds another perspective on historical remembrance in the stanitsa to the chapel’s religious history.
A memorial plaque marks the site of the church where F. A. Shcherbina’s father served as a priest. Its significance is therefore biographical and tied to a particular church site. Together with the chapel and the mass grave, it shows how different memorial sites each establish a distinct connection to the area’s history.
The F. A. Shcherbina Museum is housed in a school building built in 1913 for non-resident pupils. The building’s former purpose and its later use as a museum provide another historical point of reference for a visit. When choosing places to visit, you can explore local history through its different themes: religious remembrance, commemoration of the fallen, and a building with a history as a school.
Krasnodar Region: landscape and culture in a broader context
The Krasnodar Region also offers distinctive nature and cultural experiences. In the «Azovskie kosy» nature park, sea waves and currents shape sand and shells into spits and islands with varied outlines. Bird colonies of various gull, tern and cormorant species can be found year-round on shallow waters near the coast, at the ends of the spits and on sandy islands; their presence may vary by season. The landscape and birdlife offer two different reasons to explore the region’s coastal areas.
At the «Anapskaya peresyp» nature park, visitors can walk along the coast beside broad, golden beaches. Farther from the sea, the sand forms a series of high dunes. The «Vulkany Tamani» nature park offers a different geological highlight: Mount Karabetova, the largest active mud volcano on the Taman Peninsula. These regional examples are quite distinct, from coastal paths between beaches and dunes to a striking geological formation.
For culture-minded travellers, the regional route «Vinnye dorogi Krasnodarskogo kraya» traces the region’s more than 2,500-year history of viticulture and winemaking, from antiquity to the present day. Interactive exhibitions and installations bring this history to life. The route description also mentions the possibility of visiting 20 wineries; this figure may change. The route as described includes Anapa, Taman, Golubitskaya, Sennoy, Moldavanskoye, Novorossiysk, Abrau-Dyurso, Fedotovka and Gelendzhik. Check the current route and the availability of its stops before planning your trip.
A regional tourism information article dated March 6, 2026, also describes the large «Chernomorskaya vinnaya nedelya» enogastronomic festival as an annual event. Alongside local memorial and cultural sites, regional themes are therefore also available to consider when planning a trip. Novoderevyankovskiy offers a local focus, while nature parks, the wine route and the festival are part of the wider Krasnodar Region.
