The first written mention of Torun is found in documents of the first half of the XVII century.

The local climate is favorable for viticulture, and already in the middle ages, forests were cut down here to plant vacant land plots with vines. The local wine was first mentioned in 1417. Grapes enriched the region, making It one of the richest settlements in the region. The son of the owner of the middle Istvan Dobo in the XVI century expanded the wine cellars with the help of the labor of captured Turks. According to legend, the captured Turks were so cruelly exploited in these works that they all died. For a long time, local residents called srednyanskie basements not otherwise than "Turkish".
Now the total length of the Serednyansky basements is almost 4 km. In the XVII century, middle-class wines were even exported to Western Europe.
Kankov fortress was first mentioned in the Hungarian chronicle "deeds of the Hungarians". In this historical source, it is claimed that in the IX century there was a Slavic settlement on the site of the fortress, and two hundred years later the Hungarians built fortifications in its place to protect the border of the Kingdom and the trade "salt road".
Even when the castle was wooden, it was destroyed by the invasion of Batu Khan in 1240. In 1262, the fortress was rebuilt. This was the center of the Ugocanski zhupa, which was the smallest by area in the Kingdom of Hungary.

The Habsburgs are a powerful dynasty of German and Austrian emperors, Spanish, Czech and Hungarian kings. Hapsburgs originate from the Swiss Aargau, and they moved to Austria at the end of the XIII century.
In 1379, the Habsburg dynasty split into two branches: Albrecht (Upper and lower Austria) and Leopold (other lands). The Albrecht branch received the crown of the Holy Roman Empire of the German nation and for the first time United the Austrian lands with the lands of the Czech and Hungarian crown (1437-1457), including Transcarpathia.
In the village of Lisichevo, irshavsky district (mentioned since the XIII century, the population is over 3 thousand inhabitants), the only operating water forge in Europe-the Gamora Museum on the Lisichantsi river. This modest at first glance long one-story building with a wicker fence is a living piece of history. The name of the forge, built in the first half of the XIX century on the site of the old paper mill of count Teleki, comes from the German word Hammer (hammer). Transcarpathians still call big hammers scales.

Romanians (self-name-Romin) are a national minority that lives in Transcarpathia in the valleys of the Tisa and Apsha rivers, in the villages of Bila Tserkva, Sredne Vodiane, Vodica Pleiuc, Nizhnyaya Apsha, Glubokoe Potok, Topchino and in the village of Solotvino. These are descendants of Wallachian shepherds who came to the Eastern Carpathians from the Balkans in the XIV century. Most of them eventually assimilated with the Rusyn population, and some settled in the Tisza valley as free settlers and, following the example of local residents, began to engage in agriculture. In the XIV-XVI centuries, the Romanians of the Tisza valley, as Orthodox, were a kind of intermediary in the cultural contacts of the Rusyns of the region with the Balkan Orthodoxy, which is documented both by Transcarpathian literary monuments of that time, and wall paintings of wooden churches of Maramoroshchini. Orthodoxy held its position in villages with a Romanian population until the middle of the XVIII century.
One of the most characteristic song genres of Transcarpathian folklore are ditties. These are short humorous songs. The most common ditties are in the mountain villages of Transcarpathia, especially in the Hutsul region, where they dominate all other song genres.
Chastushki-short songs that are often combined in” bundles", a number of performers, usually without a strict plot. It all depended on the situation and the performer. Ditties could be used as accompaniment to the dance, which is called "kolomyika” or "hutsulka". Besides the genre was created by mountain shepherds and woodcutters. Sitting by the fire in the long evenings, they liked to tell different stories-stories, usually with stories about potaybichni forces. Men who possessed the gift of the so-called "Bai" were specially invited to family rituals, where they had to scare away evil spirits and bring good ones. In Hutsul mythology, there are about two hundred demonic entities. Some of them help, and some of them harm people.
The city of Hust is located at the confluence of the river Rika with the tisu at a distance of 112 kilometers from the regional center. The Uzhgorod–Solotvino railway and the Uzhgorod-Rakhov highway pass through the city. The population of Khust is about thirty thousand people.
There is a version that the name of the city of Hust is an abbreviation of the names of the crown cities of the Maramorosh zhupa, namely: Gossumese-Long Field-Campolung (now in Romania) – “G”; Uishk – Vyshkovo – “V”; Sygit – Sigetul Marmara (now in Romania) – “S”; Techo – tychev – “T”. Thus, the first letters of the names of these cities gave the name of the city "GUST", which was later transformed into Hust.
