About Earthquake & Cultural Museum

The Earthquake & Cultural Museum in Adapazarı is a memorial dedicated to the 1999 earthquake that devastated Turkey's Marmara region. The building's architecture deliberately resembles a collapsed structure, creating a somber atmosphere. The museum features a striking photographic display documenting the disaster and its impact on the city, along with a large diorama showing the affected areas and where casualties occurred.

Rather than focusing on scientific earthquake information, the museum serves primarily as a tribute to those who suffered during the catastrophic event. A notable feature is an earthquake simulation experience that lets visitors feel the sensation of seismic activity.
