The Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror Museum: The Museumization of a Cultural Asset for an Ottoman Conqueror

Abstract

Conversion to a museum is a common destiny of many cultural assets that cannot continue to serve their original functions. They are usually re-functioned to provide public benefits in return for the expenditures made for their preservation. However, their architectural features may not always meet the expected results when functioning as a museum. The spatial limitations arising in such conversions are the main design gaps in the museumization projects. This article aims to address these gaps using a sample project of a museum on Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror converted from a medieval education structure
