The responsible public missions are entrusted with this integrative discipline – to present reliable, accessible, reasonably, truthful and civically worthy exposition and stock items and materials (artifacts), which has a strong influence on the audience of listeners and visitors. It is determined that it is worth talking not about the usual regular familiarization with the museum collection objects, but about the leading function of museum pedagogy - to influence as much as possible and more effectively on the visitor’s logical and emotional apparatus, his outlook and beliefs. The article shows that in the national cultural and educational systems, the museum pedagogy is perceived as a specialized scientific branch; the doctrine of mediation between the museum exhibits and a visitor; the scientific discipline, which carries out and realizes the museum main functions; the science that studies the museum culture potential for the educational process; the science about the use of teaching material and training knowledge for the successful assimilation of the museum values embodied in the exhibits and subjects; the pedagogical discipline that deals with the development and empowerment of the museum public profile as a social institution; a practical branch engaged in the development and improvement of the educational institutions’ role and informal cultural and educational spaces; training tool and method in order to create a positive self-conception, resurgence of interest and motivation to the museum's spiritual and material culture.
