Three Istanbul museums meet on a single route: A joint campaign from Arter, Rahmi M. Koç Museum, and Sadberk Hanım Museum

Arter, the Rahmi M. Koç Museum, and the Sadberk Hanım Museum, some of Istanbul's prominent culture and arts institutions, are inviting visitors to a joint campaign that brings three different collections together on the same discovery route. The campaign, titled "Three Museums of Istanbul on a Single Discovery Route," will run until September 30, 2026.

As part of the campaign, visitors first purchase a full-price ticket to the museum of their choice. Those who have their campaign brochure stamped during this visit can then visit the other two museums once each with a discounted ticket until the end of September.

The joint route of the three institutions covers a wide cultural spectrum, ranging from contemporary art to industrial history, and from Anatolian civilizations to Turkish-Islamic art. The Rahmi M. Koç Museum on the shores of the Golden Horn stands out with its collection focusing on the history of science, technology, transportation, and industry.

Arter in Dolapdere offers a multidisciplinary experience with its program consisting of contemporary art exhibitions as well as performances, concerts, film screenings, workshops, and talks. The Sadberk Hanım Museum on the shores of the Bosphorus brings together select examples of Anatolian civilizations and Turkish-Islamic art.

The Sadberk Hanım Museum opened in 1980 as Turkey's first private museum; today, it continues its operations with a collection of over 21 thousand artifacts. The Rahmi M. Koç Museum's collection contains more than 15 thousand objects. Arter was founded by the Vehbi Koç Foundation in 2010 and has been welcoming visitors in its building in Dolapdere since 2019.
