Atatürk House Museum Antalya

The Antalya Atatürk House and Museum is a historic building where Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey, stayed during his visits to Antalya. Today, it serves as a museum.

Atatürk visited Antalya for the first time on March 6, 1930, and stayed in this two-story stone building, which had been allocated for him. Before his visit, the people of Antalya cleaned and furnished the building in a short time and presented it to him as a gift. After Atatürk’s passing, the building was used for various purposes: in 1939, it served as the Evening Girls’ Art School and Girls' Institute, and in 1952, it was used as offices under the Ministry of Agriculture. In 1984, it was transferred to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, and in 1986, it was rebuilt in its original form and opened as a museum.

The rectangular, two-story building is constructed of stone and brick and has a hipped roof covered with tiles. The ground floor features a long hallway, a living room, rooms, a bathroom, and a kitchen. The upper floor includes rooms displaying Atatürk’s personal belongings, a meeting room, a bedroom, and a study room.

On the ground floor, visitors can see photographs, documents, and newspapers related to Atatürk’s visits to Antalya. The upper floor showcases Atatürk’s personal belongings, as well as a collection of coins and banknotes from 1923 to the present, commemorative coins, and stamps.
