Public museum in Kargopol was founded in 1919. Its founder, Kapiton Grigoryevich Kolpakov (1845-1922), became the first supervisor of the museum, whose collections made the basis for the museum collection. \u00a0His collection included ethnographic works, manuscripts, weapon, portraits, porcelain, and many other things. A contract between a collector and a department of public education was signed on the 15 of March (on the 3rd<\/sup> of March in the Julian calendar) on Kapiton Grigoryevich\u2019s birthday. On the 27 of March the document was registered. The latter date is considered to be the day when Kargopol museum was founded.<\/p>\n On the 27 of March 1919 a contract was signed according to which K.G. Kolpakov gave his collection (about 600 pieces) to town department of public education. This is the day when a museum appeared in Kargopol. At first, the museum was situated in Kapiton Grigoryevich\u2019s house. In 1923 the museum was given the building which used to belong to the Raising of the Cross Church (no longer exists) and was opened to public. \u00a0In 1933 the museum was given another church building Vvedenskaya church in exchange to the previous building. In 1920 museum\u2019s collection was enriched by icons, books, church items from churches and monasteries, which were closing at the time, and things which used to belong to rich families. \u00a0All of these pieces were kept in the Nativity of Christ Cathedral, which was given to the museum in 1936 (church items were kept there).<\/p>\n Until the 1980-s the museum had only one exhibition center (in Vedenskaya church) which showed a collection of local history items. At the beginning of the 1980s the museum was given the building of Zosima and Sabbaty Church.\u00a0 At the end of the 1980s Troitskaya Church became a part of the museum. In 1993 the museum was given architectural complexes in Lyadiny, Oshevensk and Savunino. From 1994 to 1996 Ioan Predtechya Church was part of the museum but later was given to diocese. In 1995 and 2004 the museum was given historical buildings of civil architecture, Blokhin\u2019s house (bourgeois) Vager\u2019s house (timber merchant).<\/p>\n During its existence, the status of the museum has changed several times. In 1919-1927 it was called the museum of art and history. In 1928 it was renamed into the museum of regional studies and later into the regional museum of local history. In 1992 Kargopol museum was reorganized into the museum-reserve of history, architecture and art. In 2001 the museum received the status of state museum and its new name became Kargopol state museum of history, architecture and art. Since 2012 it has been called State budgetary institution of culture in the Arkhangelsk region \u201cKargopol historical-architectural and art museum”.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Public museum in Kargopol was founded in 1919.
