In memory of the trials gone through after the 1960 coup, Yassıada has been transformed into Democracy and Liberties Island with a mission of shining a light onto the future, and it has been one of the most unique projects implemented in our country.
One of Istanbul’s 7 islands, Democracy and Liberties Island stands out in the tranquil blue of the Marmara Sea. It is home to 3 museums highlighting the cultural and historic importance of the island.
There are also a variety of historical buildings, open-air installation artworks, and cultural areas with a library as well as event areas consisting of a hotel, the congress hall, cafes, and restaurants.
Our island welcomes everybody in pursuit of witnessing history step by step by experiencing the transformation within the island itself.
