NATIONAL PALACE PAINTING MUSEUM
Beginning with the Tanzimat reforms, the living quarters of heirs to the throne at Dolmabahçe Palace (the “Veliahd Residence”), also became the architectural symbol of the conclusion of the princes’ introverted life and the transition to their days of freedom.
After approximately seven years of restoration work, the Veliahd Residence was turned into a museum of contemporary museology standards and presented to the art lovers as “National Palaces Painting Museum”. The museum, which operates under the Presidency of the Republic of Turkey, as a part of the Directorate of National Palaces, consists of 11 sections in thematic integrity.
