Espectacular museo que contiene la tumba de Alejandro magno

Tiled Kiosk (Çinili Köşk), Istanbul The Tiled Pavilion (Çinili Köşk), next to the Istanbul Archeological Museum (map), is the oldest Turkish secular building in Istanbul.

Sultan Mehmet the Conqueror built a residence here in 1457, shortly after he took the city from the Byzantines (1453), but the present building dates from 1472.

An oriental-style pavilion lavishly decorated with the finest turquoise and dark blue tiles of the time, it was conceived as a private residence for the sultan, who liked to get away from the confines of nearby Topkapı Palace and watch his sons play cirit (the Central Asian horseback game akin to polo) with the palace staff. The sultan could sit in the front portico of the pavilion and watch the games.

In the 19th century the sultan built his Archeological Museum (Eser-i Atika Müzesi) next to the Çinili Köşk. Now the pavilion is officially the Museum of Turkish Faïence, a part of the Istanbul Archeological Museums. It can be visited along with the other museum buildings.More…

Inside, the pavilion has a cruciform plan, with rooms or eyvans (open niches) at the points of the cross and a small dome over the center of the cross.

Exhibits of Turkish tiles from the best periods fill the display cases and are mounted on the walls. Whether you have an interest in tiles (as I do) or not, you must see this graceful building.

Right beside the Çinili Kösk a shady garden café is set up amidst a forest of broken statues and other hardy marble monuments, the perfect place to enjoy a cool drink on a hot summer day before continuing your explorations of the Archeological Museums or the other sights of...

The Tiled Kiosk Museum is the only example of Civic Ottoman architecture built with Seljukian impression in Istanbul. The historical sources on the reign of Sultan Mehmed Il (Mehmed the Conqueror, 1451-1481) suggest that it was built in 1472 in the Saraybumu Coppice forest area within the walls surrounding the Topkapi Palace. in 1880, the building was subsumed by the lmperial Museum (Muze-i Humayun) to display archaeological mand Islamic artifacts. Followed its inclusion in the Topkapi Palace in 1939, the collection was dispursed and it ceased to be a museum. The museum which is allocated to Istanbul Archaeological Museums' authority in 1981, currently hosts unique samples of Seljuk and Ottoman tile...

Arkeoloji Müzesi karşısındaki iki katlı, Fatih Sultan Mehmetin Topkapı Sarayı'nda yaptırdığı ilk binadır. 1472 Tarihli yazlık köşk, sütunlarla hareketlendirilmiş cephesi, eyvanlı terası ve kesme çini dekoru ile Selçuklu tesirinde bir erken Osmanlı örneğidir. Giriş duvarında uzun kitabe yer almıştır. Giriş bölümü, üzeri kubbeli bir mekan olup, yanlarda tonozlu odalar yer vardır. 13-19 yüzyıl Selçuklu ve Osmanlı dönemlerine ait seramik ve çiniler kronolojik sıralı sergilenmiştir 16 yüzyıl İznik yapımı çiniler müzenin önemli eserleridir. Fatih Sultan Mehmet tarafından 1472 tarihinde yaptırılan köşk İstanbuldaki en eski Osmanlı sivil mimarlık örneklerinden birisidir. l875-1891 yılları arasında Müze-i Hümayun (İmparatorluk Müzesi) olarak kullanılmıştır. l953 yılında Türk ve İslam eserlerinin sergilendiği Fatih Müzesi adı altında ziyarete açılmış, 1981 yılında konumu nedeniyle İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzeleri`ne devredilmiştir.

Köşkün giriş cephesi tek, arka tarafı ise iki katlıdır. Girişte 14 sütunlu mermer bir revak vardır. Giriş eyvanı mozaik çinilerle süslüdür. 6 oda ve bir orta salondan oluşan köşkte Selçuklu ve Osmanlı Dönemine ait çeşitli çini ve seramikler sergilenmektedir . Müze ve depolarında yaklaşık 2000 eser bulunmaktadır. Çinili Köşk Müzesi koleksiyonlarında 11.- 20. yüzyıl başlarına tarihlenen Selçuklu ve Osmanlı dönemlerine ait 2 bin civarında eser bulunmaktadır. Müze'nin koleksiyonlarını 1981 yılında konum olarak yakınlığı nedeniyle İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzeleri Müdürlüğü'ne bağlandığında mevcut olan eserler ile arkeolojik kazılarda bulunan, satın alma, bağış ve müsadere yoluyla giren eserler oluşturmaktadır. Bu koleksiyonlardan seçilen çini ve seramikler; girişin solundaki odada Selçuklu Dönemi, sol taraftaki dışa açılan eyvanda Slip teknikli ve Milet işi, orta salon ile birlikte beş köşeli çıkıntılı odada İznik yapımı, Gülhane Parkı'na bakan sağ köşe odada Kütahya yapımı ve dışa açılan sağ eyvanda ise Çanakkale yapımı eserler olmak üzere girişin solundan başlayarak devam eden bir yerleşim düzeni içinde...

İstanbul arkeoloji müzesinin bahçesinde ekstra bir giriş yapmanıza gerek yok müzekart ile ücretsiz. Ancak içerisini gezemedik maalesef tadilatta iken geldik başka zaman muhakkak gelinmeli diye düşünüyorum dışardan görüntüsü çok güzeldi.

Located directly on the opposite to the Istanbul Archaeological Museum, but still within the same entrance area. From the outside, I thought it was a mosque, but after I realized that people are wearing shoes inside the building, I later realized that it should be part of the museum. This place exhibits a large number of ceramics and handicrafts collection from Seljuk and modern Ottoman's period.
