It is the house where Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of the Republic of Türkiye, stayed for a while during his visit to Alanya on February 18, 1935. The house was donated to the Ministry of Culture by its owner, Tevfik Azakoğlu, and turned into a museum in 1987.
Reflecting the characteristics of 19th century Turkish architecture, Atatürk’s personal belongings, photographs, the telegram Atatürk sent to the people of Alanya and other historical documents are exhibited on the ground floor of the three-storey building in the garden. The rooms of the upper floor are equipped with ethnographic items of a traditional Alanya house.
