Rahmi M. Koc Museum Ankara

The Rahmi M. Koc Museum is an industrial museum in Ankara housed across two historic Ottoman buildings. Its collection spans vintage vehicles, factory machinery, and communication devices that trace decades of Turkish industrial development.

Çengelhan was built in 1522 under Sultan Suleiman by Rüstem Pasha and served many different purposes over the centuries. The building became a museum in 2005 to house this collection of machines and vehicles.

The museum reveals how technology shaped Turkish life and work over generations. Visitors encounter old farm equipment, early electronic devices, and maritime tools that show how people once labored and moved across the land.

The museum is straightforward to visit, but wear comfortable shoes since there is much ground to cover across the spaces. The displays are clearly labeled, and visitors can move freely without needing a guided tour.

Inside the courtyard sits the original small shop where Vehbi Koç, founder of the Koç industrial group, started his business career. This modest storefront tells the story of humble beginnings that led to one of Turkey's largest business empires.
