At the turn of the XIX–XX centuries in Russia a group of church museums acquired the status of "cultural norm". In the application of the comprehensive approach with chronological and evolutionary principles, the authors of the article traced the process of the most important evolutionary stages of the development of pre- revolutionary church museums. The basis for the proposed periodization is the dynamics of the development of this group of museums, according to the historical and cultural context. A key feature of these stages is the change in the public perception of church monuments separately from the liturgical process. On the basis of the conducted research, the authors singled out three stages of the formation and development of the pre-revolutionary church museum: from its forms to the socio-cultural institution. The model of the Berlin Christian Educational Museum was used as a model for Russian church museum and adapted to Orthodoxy. The authors also identified a number of factors that contributed to the spread of the network of church museums in the pre-revoluti onary period.
