Museum of Diplomatic Corps

About

The Museum of Diplomatic Corps was a private historical museum located in the Russian city of Vologda. It was situated in a wooden manor that belonged to a noble Pavel Puzan-Puzyrevsky (a listed building of the first third of the 19th century) where, in 1918, the American Embassy was quartered. The exposition of the museum was devoted to little known events which took place in Vologda in February–July 1918 connected with a stay of 11 foreign embassies and diplomatic missions headed by the American Ambassador David Rowland Francis. The museum was closed on 4 November 2012.
