History

The museum first opened to the public in November 1998. Kenneth Vine initially planned on giving his collection to his only son, but his son died in a car accident. Vine then donated his collection of artefacts to the founder of Pyungkang Cheil Presbyterian Church, Abraham Yoon-sik Park. Together, they established The Abraham Park Kenneth Vine Collection, next to Pyungkang Cheil Presbyterian Church. The Abraham Park Kenneth Vine Collection has exhibits themed around religion and archaeology. It has a collection of Egyptian and Middle Eastern artifacts.Destination: Pyung Kang Biblical Archaeology Museum (AKA the Abraham Park and Kenneth Vine Collection)Koreabidge
