Gazi University Painting and Sculpture Museum

The Gazi University Painting and Sculpture Museum contains 3,629 artifacts including paintings, sculptures, ceramics, prints, caricatures, photographs, and ethnographic elements.

The museum building, completed in 1930, was designed by architect Arif Hikmet Koyunoğlu following his competition victory in 1926, exemplifying First National Architecture Period.

The museum's permanent collection showcases 2,780 paintings and 226 sculptures, presenting the development of Turkish art through different periods and styles.

Following extensive restoration in 2018, the museum received upgrades to its exterior, exhibition halls, and storage facilities to enhance visitor experience.

The museum houses the first Turkish opera performance space, where 'Özsoy' was staged, and displays Atatürk's Address to Youth in marble letters.
