A similar concept exists in some other post-Soviet states.
For the first time the term "zapovednik" was used in the name "Государственный заповедник 'Пушкинский уголок'", established in 1922, now Mikhaylovskoye Museum Reserve. The term "museum zapovednik" as an official status was introduced in the Soviet Union in 1958-1959.[2]
