The paper is devoted to the problem of preserving the national identity of Poles in exile in the Russian Arctic (Arkhangelsk province) during the second half of the XIX century. The research is based on modern Russian and Polish historiography, as well as on published memoirs of Poles in exile. Analysis of sources has shown that the basis for preserving the national identity of Poles in exile was their Catholic faith and national traditions.
