Abstract
The purpose of the article is to analyze the history of the building located at 9 Tereshchenkivska Str., Kyiv, in 1882-1922, which, within this period of time, was owned by the famous patron Fedir Artemiiovych Tereshchenko, and after his death belonged to his family. In the turbulent times of the Ukrainian statehood formation in the early 20th century, the building was used by political departments of the Ukrainian National Republic (UNR), the Hetmanate of Pavlo Skoropadskyi, and the Directory of the Ukrainian National Republic and witnessed the Bolshevik occupation. The methodology of research is characterized by the use of general scientific methods: analysis, synthesis, induction, and deduction; special scientific methods: problem-chronological, genetic, historical and systematic; as well as the application of the principles of objectivity and historicism. The scientific novelty consists in a comprehensive study of the Tereshchenko family's activities on the basis of sources and historiography, as well as in filling the research gap by studying the historical transformations of the house at 9 Tereshchenkivska Str. in 1882-1922. Conclusions. The house at 9 Tereshchenkivska Str. was built in accordance with the styles of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and the tastes of its owners. Based on archival photographs of the manor’s interiors and the collection of paintings, it can be undoubtedly stated that the Tereshchenko family demonstrated a deep sense of beauty and art. The art gallery, founded by F. Tereshchenko, was one of the centers of cultural life in Kyiv. Since 1917, the house at 9 Tereshchenkivska Str. in Kyiv become an important object of political activity for various governments and military institutions (Ukrainian and Bolshevik), playing a significant role in the Ukrainian revolution. However, the events of this period jeopardized both the existence of the building itself and the preservation of the unique collection it housed. They have become an important lesson for the present day in the protection of Kyiv's cultural heritage in the conditions of independent Ukraine.
