As a result of the investigation it is stated that the international scientific relations were represented as a complex structure with a plenitude of directions and forms of development. The article identifies forms of international cooperation of museums, including visits to museums by foreign scholars, correspondence on the provision of scientific information, exchange and definition of collections, participation in exhibitions, etc. The expanding international relations of museums clearly show that at the end of the 19th century a research culture was formed in the Yenisei province.
