Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar Museum, House museum in Heybeliada, Turkey.
The Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar Museum occupies a historical residence on Heybeliada island, displaying personal items and manuscripts of the Turkish novelist.
The building served as the residence of Turkish writer Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar from 1912 to 1944 before its transformation into a museum in 2000.
The museum presents the literary work of Gürpınar through original manuscripts, photographs, and personal belongings that reflect Turkish social life in the early 1900s.
Visitors can reach the museum by taking a ferry from Istanbul to Heybeliada island and following the signs through the local streets.
The Ministry of Culture saved this museum from becoming a training center in 2013 after strong public opposition to preserve its original purpose.
