Sakıp Sabancı Museum
Nestled on the serene, verdant slopes of Emirgan with panoramic views of the Bosphorus, this exceptional venue offers a chance to witness Istanbul’s cultural richness firsthand. Built in 1927, the Atlı Köşk served as the residence of the Sabancı family and has since been transformed into a museum enriched with contemporary exhibitions.
The collection’s calligraphy, paintings, and decorative art pieces are displayed to international standards. We offer a leisurely, unhurried viewing experience in a tranquil atmosphere, fostering a profound dialogue with art through both permanent collections and rotating exhibitions. The museum’s architecture and interior design complement the presentation of the artworks in the most aesthetic manner possible.
Sitting in the garden overlooking the Bosphorus while enjoying a beverage at our café merges cultural experience with psychological relaxation. Particularly during spring months, this space adorned with flowers and greenery captivates art enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.
With free admission on Tuesdays, the museum is an ideal destination for those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of Istanbul and spend moments immersed in culture.
