The Finnish Heritage Agency's description

Hiltulan kylä edustaa savolaista mäkiasutusta.

Kylä, joka on edustavaa itäsuomalaista kulttuurimaisemaa talonpoikaisrakennuksineen, sijaitsee Savonlinna-Mikkeli -maantien pohjoispuolella. Maisema polveilee rinnepeltoina mäeltä toiselle. Kylän talot Taskila, Vanha-Taskila, Lautiala ja Viisala ovat sijoittuneet kukin omalle mäelleen. Maantie on ottanut luontevasti sijansa pellon ja metsän rajan muodostamassa maisematilassa. Pihapiirit ovat tiivisti rakennettuja ja korkeat kuuset sekä lehtevät puut osoittavat kauas niiden sijainnin. Maantien varressa on kylän vanha mylly patoineen.

Hiltulan Säynejärven ja Putkilahden väliselle kannakselle levittyneessä kylässä oli 1560-luvulla jo 14 taloa.

Vanha-Taskila on vuodelta 1652 periytyvä sukutila. Sen kaksikerroksinen päärakennus rakennettiin 1800-luvun puolivälissä samoin kuin Ilohovin päärakennus. Taskilan ja Lautialan asuinrakennukset valmistuivat 1800- ja 1900-luvun taitteessa. Viisalan päärakennus vuodelta 1818 tuhoutui tulipalossa 2005, mutta rakennuksista säilyi mm. tilan suuri navetta vuodelta 1910.

Hiltula village represents Savonian hill settlement.

The village, a representative East Finnish cultural landscape with its peasant buildings, lies to the north of the Savonlinna-Mikkeli road. The landscape undulates with sloping fields from one hill to the next. The village farms Taskila, Vanha-Taskila, Lautiala and Viisala are each sited on their own hill. The road has found its place naturally in the landscape space formed by the boundary between field and forest. The yards are densely built, and tall spruces and leafy trees mark their location from afar. Along the road is the village's old mill with its dam.

In the 1560s the village, spread across the isthmus between Säynejärvi and Putkilahti in Hiltula, already had 14 farms.

Vanha-Taskila is a family farm dating back to 1652. Its two-storey main building was built in the mid-19th century, as was the main building of Ilohovi. The residential buildings of Taskila and Lautiala were completed at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The main building of Viisala, dating from 1818, was destroyed by fire in 2005, but the buildings that survived include the farm's large cowshed from 1910.
