Its story

When Atatürk came to Gaziantep on 26 January 1933, he was registered in the population records of the Bey neighborhood and presented with a certificate of honorary citizenship. To keep this memory alive, the Gaziantep Metropolitan Municipality restored a historic house donated by the Konukoğlu family and opened the Atatürk Memorial Museum in 2013. Two buildings in traditional Antep house architecture face a shared courtyard; the room where Atatürk stayed in the city has been re-created with period furnishings, and personal belongings he used during his visits are on display.
