Ankara Atatürk House Museum or simply Atatürk House; a museum built in Ankara on the Forest Farm land as a replica of the house where the founder of the Republic of Turkey, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, was born in Thessaloniki. The house was commissioned in memory of Atatürk's 100th birth anniversary by the decision of the Ankara Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors at its meeting on 6 November 1980. The foundation of the house was laid in 1981 on 19 May, the day accepted as Atatürk's spiritual birthday, at 17:00 by the prime minister of the time, Bülend Ulusu. The opening of the house was carried out on 10 November 1981, the anniversary of Atatürk's death, by Kenan Evren.

When the house was copied, its dimensions were kept exactly faithful to the original; it was built as a three‑storey pink building just like the original. Upon entering the building through the stone‑staired door, the first floor contains a stone room, a pantry and a servant's room; the second floor contains a sofa, kitchen, sitting room and guest room; the third floor contains a sofa, Atatürk room and museum room.
