Edirne Museum, Archaeological museum in Edirne, Turkey.
The museum occupies a modern building next to the Selimiye Mosque, featuring fourteen exhibition halls displaying archaeological and ethnographic collections from different periods.
Established in 1925 within a medrese of Selimiye Mosque, the museum moved to its current location in 1971 through a design by architect İhsan Kıygı.
The ethnography section presents traditional Turkish items, including carpets, clothing, and reconstructed rooms showing daily life in historical Edirne houses.
The museum remains open every day except Mondays from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with an entrance fee of 5 Turkish Lira.
The collection includes paleontological exhibits featuring bones of extinct elephants and rhinoceros, along with terra-cotta figurines of Aphrodite and Thracian funerary steles.
