The house where Mustafa Kemal Pasha stayed with his military and civilian companions while preparing the liberation plans for the country was purchased by the Istanbul Municipality (Şehremaneti) on May 28, 1928, and opened to visitors as the Atatürk Revolution Museum on June 15, 1942 by Istanbul Governor and Mayor Lütfi Kırdar.

A significant part of the museum’s collection includes items of great historical value such as Atatürk’s personal belongings, clothing, uniforms, photographs from his military and civilian life, handwritten documents, and medals. Among the displayed items are also gifts donated by Mustafa Kemal’s sister, including his marshal uniform and the outfit he wore during the Sivas Congress.

One section of the museum, reopened after restoration, includes a library featuring a curated collection of 963 books.

The Atatürk Museum Library houses works on Mustafa Kemal Pasha’s life, the War of Independence, and the founding of the Republic of Turkey. While the library is open to visitors for on-site reading, it does not offer lending services.

It is open to the public every day except Monday, between 09:00 and 17:00.
