Ferapontov Monastery. The Museum of Dionisy's Frescoes.

Currently, the monuments of the Ferapontov Monastery house the Museum of Dionisy's Frescoes, which holds the status of a historical, architectural, and artistic museum-reserve.

The museum, established in the early 20th century, relied on a single watchman to protect its monuments throughout the 1930s to 1960s. Since 1975, the modern museum began to take shape, evolving into a research and educational center that disseminates knowledge about the unique monuments of the Ferapontov Monastery ensemble through various forms of museum work.

In late 2000, the ensemble of the Ferapontov Monastery, including the frescoes by Dionysius, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
