The Plyos State Historical, Architectural and Art Museum-Reserve was founded October 22, CE.1982 for the comprehensive protection of historical and cultural monuments, as well as the landscape of the city Plyos. This is the only such object of federal significance in the Ivanovo Region.^[1]

By Resolution No. 338 of June 30, 1980, The Council of Ministers of the RSFSR [ru] ordered at the base, first of all, the Levitan House Museum [ru] and the Plyos Art Gallery (occupied by the Church of the Resurrection [ru]) create a museum-reserve in Plyos in 2 years, provide it with infrastructure, restoration facilities, works of art and other support. The construction of tourist infrastructure and the reconstruction of a number of buildings with their re-profiling were planned for a decade^[2] Some of the plans remained unrealized.
