General information about Museum of Antiquities (Bishop's Palace) (Kamyanets-Podilskyi)

The Department of Antiquities (Archeology) of the Kamyanets-Podilskyi State Historical Museum-Reserve is located in the former palace of the Armenian bishop, which was founded in the 15th century as a trading house.

After the Turkish invasion, the commandant of Kamyanets-Podilskyi, Yan de Vitte, settled in the house.

The archeological exposition is based on a collection of antiquities, which began to be collected in the XIX century. The halls of the museum recreate the dwellings of ancient man, exhibit ancient tools, household items of the people who inhabited Podillya from ancient times to the baptism of Rus.

In the courtyard is a lapidary of pagan idols.

Відділ старожитностей (археології) Кам'янець-Подільського державного історичного музею-заповідника розташований у колишньому палаці вірменського єпископа, який був закладений ще у ХV столітті як торговий дім.

Після турецької навали в будинку оселився комендант Кам'янця-Подільського Ян де Вітте.

В основу археологічної експозиції покладено колекцію старожитностей, яку почали збирати ще у ХІХ столітті. У залах музею відтворено житло стародавньої людини, виставлені старовинні знаряддя праці, предмети побуту людей, що населяли Поділля з найдавніших часів до хрещення Русі.

У внутрішньому дворі знаходиться лапідарій язичницьких ідолів.
