Rahmi M. Koç Museum, Beyoğlu, İstanbul, Turkey
The Rahmi M Koç Museum is the first major museum in Turkey dedicated to the history of Transport, Industry and Communications. Housed in magnificent buildings – themselves prime examples of industrial archaeology – on the shore of the historic Golden Horn, the collection contains thousands of items from gramophone needles to full size ships and aircraft.
The location is unrivalled – romantic, historic, convenient to both the Old City and the new. And the appeal is universal: objects that affect our daily lives, created by talented engineers and craftsmen, encapsulating man’s ingenuity and hard work yet at the same time exhibiting great beauty.
Our museum educates, informs, and entertains tens of thousands of adults and children each year. Please do explore our website now for a taste of what we have on show… but better still, come and visit us soon!
