Afyonkarahisar Müzesi

With the efforts of the Asar-ı Atika Muhipleri Cemiyeti, established in Afyonkarahisar in the early years of the Republic, antiquities began to be collected in Taş Medrese; in 1931 it became an official museum depot, and in 1933 it became the Museum Directorate. Serving as a mixed museum (Archaeology and Ethnography) in Taş Medrese from 1933 to 1970, the institution moved to its second service building in 1971.
