Museum of Troy

The modern steel-clad building spans 12,750 square meters across four floors, displaying 2,000 archaeological artifacts from ancient Troy and neighboring settlements.

The museum opened in 2018, replacing earlier collections that started in 1911 at Çanakkale High School and later moved to the Armenian Church.

Exhibition areas present artifacts from the Bronze Age through Ottoman times, including the Polyxena sarcophagus, gold jewelry, coins, and military equipment.

The museum operates from 8:30 to 20:00 during summer months and until 17:30 in winter, with combined tickets available for both museum and archaeological site.

The building design mirrors archaeological excavation layers, featuring a descending entrance ramp with niches displaying artifacts from different Troy periods.
