Victory Museum

The Victory Museum is a war museum in Afyonkarahisar that houses collections from the Turkish War of Independence. The exhibition spreads across multiple rooms with documents, weapons, uniforms, and photographs that document this historical conflict.

The building served as headquarters for Commander-in-Chief Mustafa Kemal Ataturk during the War of Independence. Decisions made within its walls shaped the course of Turkey's struggle for independence in the early 20th century.

The museum displays military uniforms, weapons, and personal belongings of soldiers from the independence war period. These collections give visitors direct insight into the daily lives and experiences of those who participated in this conflict.

Plan to spend time exploring multiple rooms since only eleven of seventeen rooms contain exhibitions. It helps to move through the building at a comfortable pace and pay attention to the layout so you do not miss key sections.

One room has been preserved exactly as it was during the War of Independence, with original furnishings and period items. This space offers visitors a direct sense of how the place looked and felt during that crucial time.
