The article examines the activities of museums in Moscow region, aimed at studying and presenting the history and culture of local Old Believers. The territory of Moscow province in the past was one of important historical regions of the Old Believers’ residence, they contributed to the formation of the unique spiritual and material heritage of the region, left a notable mark in social and cultural life of the province (charity, guardianship). However, up to the present day the Old Believers of Moscow province (with the exception of Guslitskyregion) remain poorly studied, and this is reflected on museum expositions. The analysis of the activities of certain Moscow region museums shows that the history and culture of local Old Believers are presented in a fragmented way, there is no comprehensive approach that would give an idea of the way of life, spiritual life and different spheres of activity of the Old Believers’ community, first of all social and cultural.
