Ankara Painting and Sculpture Museum

It is one of best museums in Ankara. Best location, comfortable links between salons, and the pieces inside are eye candies. It was part of culture route festival 2025 so it was free to visit too. Reminder: you put your bags or items in the locker room. You can take photos but no flashes.

Fantastic art - mostly 19 & 20 century Turkish artists. Lovely building. Well priced. Nice staff. Impressive in every way.

The Ankara Painting and Sculpture Museum is a must-visit for art lovers! It houses an impressive collection of Turkish paintings, sculptures, and other artworks, showcasing the country's rich artistic heritage. The building itself is a stunning piece of architecture, adding to the overall experience. A peaceful and inspiring place to explore Turkish art and culture!

Very beautiful place to visit. It is a large museum with multiple floors that contains a vast amount of fine art pieces.

The contemporary arts museum offers a fantastic atmosphere with ample space for art appreciation. While accessibility could improve, the real downside is the inadequate lighting, making painting visibility challenging. Some pieces may require a change in location to truly appreciate them. Moreover, temperature and humidity control for painting preservation needs enhancement. Despite these issues, the overall experience is excellent, with a diverse collection making it completely worth a visit for art enthusiasts. ₺90 normal, ₺60 student.

I very much enjoyed this little treat of an Art museum. Unfortunately, there is no good audio guide so tourists can learn more about these rich paintings. In that case I’d give it 5 stars. Here in this museum, you can see how Turkish painters in the 19th and 20th centuries were working right alongside the great European and American artists and learning a lot from those styles and giving it their own unique Turkish flavor and diving into rich themes of Turkish history and culture. I also especially enjoyed the modern artworks, which I thought were just as good as some that you would find in the great modern art museums of the west.

This Museum is a true gem! The collection is diverse and inspiring, showcasing incredible talent and creativity. Each piece tells a unique story, making the visit a deeply enriching experience. Highly recommend to art lovers and curious minds alike!
