Mardin Museum, Archaeological and ethnographic museum in Mardin, Turkey.
The museum occupies a three-story limestone building with decorated vaults, arches, and columns facing the ancient town square of Mardin.
The structure, built in 1895 as the Syriac Catholic Patriarchate, transformed into a museum in 2000 after restoration by the Ministry of Culture.
The ethnography section displays regional silver jewelry, traditional copper items, and local coffee sets known as mırra, representing daily life in Mardin.
