State Archive of Kherson Oblast, Government records repository in Kherson, Ukraine.
The State Archive of Kherson Oblast is a repository for official documents, photographs, maps, and manuscripts located on Yaroslava Mudroho Street. The collection includes administrative materials, genealogical records, and religious documents that document the region's history.
The facility was founded in 1921 as part of the Kherson District Special Archive Commission. It went through several administrative transformations before becoming the State Archive in its current form.
The archive holds handwritten books from the Voskresenska Church in Beryslav that show how the local religious community kept records of their practices. These documents reveal the way people documented their faith and daily spiritual life in the region.
Visitors need a valid identification document to enter the facility and access the collections. The best time to visit is during regular working hours when staff are available to help with research requests and archive inquiries.
The collection holds detailed correspondence about bread and forage transportation during the 1812 war, written by local landowners from the region. These reports offer a personal view of daily life and economic challenges during that period.
