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.[2]

The Abraham Park Kenneth Vine Collection has exhibits themed around religion and archaeology. It has a collection of Egyptian and Middle Eastern artifacts.[2]
