Abstract: The article describes the history of acquisition, structure and documental composition of the personal archival fond of the Ukrainian historian Olena Kompan (1816–1986). She was a researcher of the history of Ukraine in the late Middle Ages and the early Modern Era, a scientist with an active social position keeping in touch with the movement of the "sixtiers". The article covers O. Kompan’s biography, outlines her life as a researcher. The author analyzes the structural documental groups of O. Kompan’s personal archive, which were specificated as a result of the fond scientific processing. Particular attention is paid to the section "Scientific and Creative Materials" representing broad scientific interests of O. Kompan as a historian and a historiosopher. A group of documents "Materials of the Fond Creator Relatives", containing the researcher’s husband documents, is of great interest. Her husband was a famous Ukrainian writer – Ivan Senchenko. Another noteworthy category is "Materials of other People" including the documents of the former political prisoners – Ukrainian scientists Pavlo Fedorenko (1880–1962) and Yevhen Stashevsky (1884–1938)
