Gauk s Sverdlovsk Regional Museum of Local Lore. Sverdlovsk Regional Museum of Local Lore (sokm). The museum includes ten branches located on the territory of the Sverdlovsk region outside Yekaterinburg

The initiator of the creation of WOLE was O. E. Claire - lecturer French in the men's gymnasium, where at first the society operated.

At the opening of UOLE, the establishment of a local history museum took place, to the collection of which the first gifts were brought - books, minerals, a snake in alcohol, etc. At first, the collections and books either temporarily remained with the donors themselves, or were housed in the homes of the UOLE members. Only in August 1871, WOLE was offered two small rooms in one of the buildings of the mining department.

Four collections began to form first: zoological, mineralogical, paleontological and botanical. In 1873, the beginning of the numismatic collection was laid: the first 40 coins were received from an unknown donor. In 1873, when a student of a real school Alexei Bryukhanov brought O.E. Kler an object similar to stone ax, the formation of the archaeological collection of the museum began. In 1874, a collection of samples of thin sheet iron and copper from the Nizhne-Tagil plant, handed over by the mine superintendent, a member of UOLE IN Privalov, formed the basis of the industrial department of the museum.

In 1874, the UOLE Museum moved to a new, more spacious room owned by the mining department, but there was still no opportunity to exhibit.

In 1891, UOLE was accepted under the patronage of the Grand Duke Mikhail Nikolaevich, which eventually made it possible from July 1, 1895 to receive an annual allowance from the state treasury of 2,000 rubles "in order to provide the Society with the opportunity to expand 25 years of useful activity and ensure the improvement of the institutions founded by him" ( in 1911-1917 UOLE was under the patronage of the Grand Duke Nikolai Mikhailovich).

In 1901, a collegial management system was established in the museum, 10 departments were created (botanical, zoological, paleontological, mineralogical, geological, entomological, anthropological, archaeological, ethnographic, numismatic) and 2 collections (artistic and historical). By January 1, 1912, the museum had 17 departments, and the funds numbered 28,891 items.

On December 29, 1895, there was a big fire in the museum. Together with other collections, the zoological one was badly damaged, and much of it had to be restored anew. This fire again raised the issue of allocating new premises to the museum. It was decided to establish a fund for the construction of its own museum building, to submit petitions to the government and the Yekaterinburg City Duma. The latter responded quickly: at its emergency meeting on October 16, 1910, the Duma decided “to allocate, free of charge, to the UOLE for the construction of a museum building, a piece of urban land on Drovyanoy Square, behind the new theater with a space of up to 1,800 square meters. fathoms so that the appearance of the museum building in architectural terms is in full harmony with the building of the new theater ... and so that the museum and the library belonging to the museum were called the Museum named after Emperor Alexander II in memory of February 19, 1861 " ...

February 19, 1911, on the day of the 50th anniversary of the liberation of serfs, on the land donated by the city, in the presence of the Minister of Public Education L.A. Kasso, Perm Governor V.A. P. Boklevsky, Yekaterinburg mayor AE Obukhov, the ceremonial laying of the new building of the UOLE museum took place. Nevertheless, the development of a new architectural project began only on August 7, 1913, when, based on the permission of the Ministry of Public Education dated May 30, 1913, for the UOLE's right to own real estate, the society took possession of the land in the allocated area. However, with the outbreak of the First World War, the society was denied the promised appropriations for the construction of the museum, and the project, estimated at 450 thousand rubles, remained only on paper.

In the 10s, the attendance of the museum increased sharply - up to 13-14 thousand people a year. This was largely due to the arrival in Yekaterinburg of a large number of servicemen who were recovering from the wounded in the First World War, evacuated. In August 1918, a geodetic department was created as part of the museum.

As of January 1, 1920, the museum had 42020 items in its funds, 11 departments. Its attendance continued to grow - in 1924 the museum received 21,420 people.

In May-June 1923, the museum was closed in connection with the arrest of the President of WOLE M.O. Claire.

At the end of 1925, the museum was separated from the UOLE and received new status- Ural Regional State Museum. An academic council was created at the museum, which included all members of the UOLE board. Later, on the basis of the collections of the UOLE Museum, several museums were opened in Sverdlovsk - the Museum of Fine Arts (in 1923, on the basis of the art department of the museum, a gallery was created old painting, and since 1936, after replenishment with works socialist realism, - Sverdlovsk Picture Gallery as a separate museum), literary museum D.N.Mamin-Sibiryak (opened in 1940).

The transformation of the UOLE Museum into a state one was aimed at creating a historical exposition as an illustration of the historical-party course. The expositions were distinguished by their "ideologically sustained character" in accordance with the official guidelines.

After the reorganization, the only building of the museum (Lenina st., 28) was used for storing funds, and the museum was closed for visitors. On October 1, 1926, according to the decree of the Presidium of the Sverdlovsk City Council dated August 20, 1926, the museum was provided with one more room - on the street. Lenin, 24 in the building of the two-story New Gostiny Dvor. Local history departments are located here regional museum: alive and inanimate nature, archeology, ethnography and the Ural industry. In addition, the museum received a building former church Mining College, where it was open to the public art department, which offered for inspection a gallery of ancient paintings and items of Kasli art casting. As a result, in 1927 the museum was reopened to the public.

Also at this time, the museum had several rooms in the Weiner club and exhibition areas on the street. March 8, 25 (security service of the Perm railway).

As of January 1, 1941, there were 120 thousand storage units in the museum's funds, up to 40% of which were used in the exhibition.

In October 1941, the museum was closed and its premises were confiscated. The monuments and collections of the museum were preserved. At the same time, part of the monuments and part of the museum's archives perished during the urgent dismantling of the exposition, and later when the storage was flooded as a result of a break in the water conduit. In Vojvodina, the museum was left with a small room of 50 square meters, where an office room, a library and a cold warehouse for storing funds were located. During this period, 130 thousand exhibits were registered in the museum. The remaining 600 sq.m. hosted a hostel, a canteen, a shoemaker's UZTM and a design bureau of Plant No. 37, which produced tanks.

In 1946, the museum received the premises of the Ascension Church, where expositions on the history of the region unfold. Another building of the museum was the house on the street. Voevodina, 4, which houses the department of nature, funds, library.

By 1960, the building on Vojvodina was declared emergency and was subject to demolition. In April 1960, the building of the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in the Green Grove of Yekaterinburg was transferred to the museum's disposal. After the building was put in order, it houses a new exposition of the department of nature, funds, an archive and a scientific library. Later, the Planetarium was located in the building of the cathedral, and a restoration workshop was located in the basement. The exposition of the department of nature, equipped here, became a standard for local history museums, therefore museum specialists from different regions THE USSR .

Also, the relics of the Holy Righteous Simeon of Verkhoturye were kept in the storerooms of the museum in the cathedral, which in 1989 were transferred to the Church and in 1991 were transferred to Verkhoturye.

In the 60s, special attention was paid to the supply of museum work to scientific basis- the monuments of the collection fund began to be transferred to the scientific and accounting documentation, the collections and the fund of the scientific library were systematized (a rare book fund is allocated).

Also in the 60s, intensive work was carried out to create museums in the region on the principles social work in places. Veteran enthusiasts collected materials, monuments, created their own museum councils, attracted the local population, schoolchildren, and used their connections. The first to appear were museums in Nizhnaya Salda and Revda, then the Museum of the Decembrists in Turinsk, in 1967 - the Pavlik Morozov Museum in Tavda, museums in Artyah and Polevskoy, the Berezovsky Museum of the Gold-Platinum Industry in the Urals. The Tchaikovsky Museum was created in Alapaevsk, local history museums in Severouralsk and Serov.

In 1970, the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in the village of Shurala near Nevyansk was transferred to the museum, which was soon adapted for storing large-sized monuments.

By the decision of the Sverdlovsk Regional Executive Committee of March 14, 1978 and the Ministry of Culture of the RSFSR, the Sverdlovsk Regional local history museum was transformed into a museum association headed by director general A.D. Balchugov with branches in Yekaterinburg and the region (decree of the Ministry of Culture of the RSFSR dated July 20, 1979). In addition to branches in the museum, new departments were created - methodical, exhibitions, restoration.

In 1978, the main historical exposition in the Ascension Church was closed due to the accident rate of the building and the need for its restoration. Initially, it was assumed that the exposition would move to a renovated building on st. Voevodina, 5. However, by the decision of the regional committee of the CPSU, the building was given to the Museum of Fine Arts.

In March 1987, a memorial building was transferred to the museum architecture XIX century on the street. Malysheva, 46, which in pre-revolutionary times belonged to the Ural businessman Alfons Fomich Poklevsky-Kozell. On May 22, 1988, an exposition on the history of the Urals of the XX century was opened there.

In the 1980s, the restoration workshop was improved, and a taxidermy workshop appeared. Local expositions were renewed - for example, a unique collection appeared in the P.I.Tchaikovsky Museum in Alapaevsk musical instruments... Expositions were modernized in Berezovsky (history of the gold-platinum industry in the Urals), Polevskoy (historical), Tavda (timber and woodworking industry), in the village of Gerasimovka (Pavlik Morozov Museum), Sysert (local history), Alapaevsk (local history), in Pyshma ( history of agriculture and life of peasants), in the village of Zyryanka (house museum of the family of N.I.

Popov, where for the first time in the history of the museum of local lore, audiovisual means were used.

In 1991, the buildings of the Ascension Church, the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in the Green Grove and the Alexander Nevsky Church in the village of Shurala were transferred to the Church, and the museum received the buildings of the House of Culture named after F.E.Dzerzhinsky (Lenin Ave. 69/10) and the monument of industrial architecture "Small Forges". However, the transfer of exhibits to new buildings took almost 10 years and was fully completed only in February 2005. By this time, the museum funds already included more than 600 thousand exhibits.

In addition, in 1991 the museum received a wooden building - the mansion of the Agafurov merchants on the street. Sacco and Vanzetti, 28. The building of the former pharmacy at 39 Lenin Avenue, on the squares of which the Museum of the History of Stone-Cutting and Jewelry Art of the Urals, was also transferred to the museum.

Finally I was going to go once again to the Regional Studies. There was some prejudice about the exhibition, timed to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the death of the royal family. But then I thought, why not. At the checkout, the employee very sensibly and even convincingly explained what, where and for how much, what can be done and where to go. In the end, I bought tickets for everything, and went to the top.

On the second floor, the employee on duty invited me to see the exhibition first, dedicated to the anniversary Uralsky folk choir, and the main exposition, as they work until 18.00. Well, yes, time is running out unnoticed by the choir for 75 years (first photo). It was interesting to look at the photographs reflecting the path of the team. I liked the embroidery presented by the great Leader, Comrade Kim Il Sung (second photo). I looked at the costumes with attention (third photo), beautiful, of course. What I lacked here was the binding of the concert costumes to a certain area - where were they worn? when did they wear it? etc. I also ran through the main exposition - the furniture still looks, arousing respect for the work of the masters (photos four, five, six).

The surprise was the exposition from the Kerch Museum. Exhibits for the most part small, preservation is not very good, rather fragments than whole things. The exception, perhaps, is these amphoras, among which there are those that were made before our era. (photo seven). An unexpected pleasant effect in the middle of this communication with antiques was caused by the appearance of a woman with such a familiar face - she greeted everyone who was in the hall at that moment. The mood was good, but then it jumped even higher. It turned out that the director of the museum is Natalya Konstantinovna Vetrova. It turned out very home-like. Pleasantly.

I liked the small chamber exposition "Livadia" - such light and calm subjects were selected: Park in Livadia (photo eight), House of the Minister of the Imperial Court of Baron VB Fredericks (photo ninth), Morning of the Livadia Palace (photo ten). I highly recommend stopping by and admiring it - it really suits your mood.

What else? A small exposition about the Kerch Bridge and not only about it, of course, and the president in the center. I do not know how it happened, but about the bridge before going to look about royal family"The tragedy of the family ... The tragedy of the Motherland". It is really sad, even very sad, partly spelled out, and partly you can already independently conjecture how the autocrat led the country, society, state, and at the same time own family to so tragic ending... A special mood is created by the film and chronicles of that time and not only the film, but also pictures, as well as photographs - playing with soldiers, reviews, parades, aiguillette stripes, but the family goes to a prayer service, again soldiers, marches and parades, again the sovereign surrounded by priests. and here he is on a hunt with killed partridges, he also drives his daughters and son on a boat, and so on ad infinitum. And at this time, the hidden crisis of the whole state system grew stronger, the country was already heading towards a tragic ending. Here is such a sad aftertaste from the external that is shown in the exposition brought from the Pavlovsk Palace.

I almost forgot that you cannot take pictures at this exhibition. And there is something to see. I especially liked the portrait of Empress Maria Feodorovna - the nobility of beauty. But the portrait of Nicholas II by Vasily Vereshchagin was very unlucky. All the plates, as the employee told me, for the paintings were sent from Pavlovo. They made a double mistake for the portrait in Russian, and even duplicated it in English. It turns out that the painter who died in the explosion of the battleship Petropavlovsk in the roadstead of Port Arthur in 1904 lived until 1909, and the painting itself is dated for some reason the same year. In general, ay-ay-ay, employees from the Pavlovsk Palace Museum, how can you do that?

At this critical moment I will end my short narration about what he saw and heard in the museum. It's worth going. Recommend

The Sverdlovsk Regional Museum of Local Lore is one of the largest museum centers not only in Yekaterinburg, but throughout the Urals. The museum fund contains about 700 thousand items.
