Kaleici Museum

Kaleiçi Museum is a private museum located in two buildings in Antalya Kaleiçi that have both been registered as cultural assets requiring preservation. One of the structures is an Orthodox church, the other a traditional Turkish house.

Suna and İn​an Kıraç, who purchased the dilapidated structures, completed their restoration between 1993 and 1995; they converted them into a museum in 1996. The two‑storey residential building has been arranged as a distinctive ethnography museum presenting 19th‑century Kaleiçi life with special effects. Scenes from daily life such as a henna night, coffee service, and groom’s shaving are reenacted. The Orthodox church called Aya Yorgi Church is a venue where concerts and various art events are also organized. The tile collection of Suna and İn​an Kıraç is also exhibited in this building. Valuable works such as a tile map of Turkey presented as a gift to Atatürk are present.
