Стаття присвячена висвітленню історії науково-реставраційних робіт, виконаних у другій половині 1950-х – на початку 1960-х рр. на пам’ятці
 архітектури – Будинку митрополита архітектурного ансамблю Києво-Печерської лаври під керівництвом Є. Пламеницької. The architectural ensemble of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, which is
 has an outstanding cultural value of world importance, was devastated
 during the Second World War. After the War, large-scale restoration
 and restoration works were launched in the Lavra, which contributed to
 the establishment of a Ukrainian restoration school, the development
 of a restoration methodology, and the formation of talented restoration
 architects. In particular, in the late 1950s – early 1960s, restoration works
 under the direction of Yevhenia Plamenytska were performed on the iconic
 monument of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra - the Metropolitan’s House. This
 monument suffered significant damage during the Second World War. In
 general, the Metropolitan’s House required not only the restoration of the
 lost structures, but also the strengthening of the existing ones. The work on
 the monument was carried out in accordance with the current legislation
 on conservation and scientific and methodological documents. Along with
 detailed measurements and full-scale studies of the monument, archival
 materials and historical sources were studied.
 In the process of scientific research Ye. Plamenytska revealed important
 stages of creation and transformation of the object, in particular, refuted
 established ideas about its original nucleus, and also revealed a number of
 important details of the original architectural and decorative decoration
 of the facades. It is also revealed that in 1752–1761, as a result of the
 transformations, the Metropolitan’s House was transformed from an
 archaic three-chamber building into a palace-type building. However,
 during the XIX - early XX centuries numerous additions were made to the
 Metropolitan’s House which led to the almost complete loss of the features
 of the Baroque palace.
 The project of restoration of the Metropolitan’s House was designed to
 adapt it to the Museum of Ukrainian Art. The restoration concept intended
 to free the monument from architectural layers that have no artistic value
 and to restore the monument to its original appearance. The implementation
 of the project decisions was influenced by ideological motives related to
 the strengthening of the anti-religious campaign by the Soviet authorities.
 Restoration work was carried out during 1959-1963. Some project decisions
 that failed in those years remain relevant today.
 Project of restoration of Metropolitan’s House is a stage work of
 Ye. Plamenytska. Realization of this project provided stylistic integrity of
 architectural ensemble of Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra to a certain extent, that
 became a important factor in behalf of decision-making about entering of
 this ensemble in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
