Summary/Abstract: Purpose of the article. To reveal the theoretical consequences of the institutional critic of a museum by T. Šola and to criticize hypothetic theories suggested by this scientist. Methodology. Criticism by K. Popper. Scientific novelty. Found out, that redemption of «museum sins» requires institutional suicide of museum. Conclusions. T.Šola had fixed existential crisis of museum, which appears in «museum sins». Scientist uses reduction of refutation of theory. This refutation based on disaffection with the practice of some museum institutions (such as complicated explications, fake apoliticality of museums, inappropriate ethic values, etc.). Refutation based on deductive logic, which ignored in refutations of Šola. Scientist filled engineering theory of museum with apocalyptic sense, for the one hand, and another – with ideas of utopian social engineering.
