Although the museum is quite small, it contains extremely well preserved sarcophagus, notably the sarcophagus depicting the 12 labors of Hercules. Not much English explanations, but it was a pleasure to just look at some artifacts. A small resting gazebo in the center of the courtyard to rest your tired feet. Very quiet, and absolutely free! Please note that lunch hour from 12:30 to 1:30pm, the museum is closed.

Konya Arkeoloji Müzesi: Konya' da müzecilik faaliyetleri 19. yüzyılın sonlarına doğru başlamıştır. Alaaddin Tepesi ile Konya Bedesteni' nde toplanan eserler 1901 yılında Karma Ortaokulu' nun güney batı köşesinde açılan "Müze-i Hümayun Konya Şubesi" ne taşınır. Müze-i Hümayun Konya Şubesi Anadolu' da açılan ilk müzedir. Mevlana Dergahı' nın 1926 yılında Konya Asar-ı Atika Müzesi olarak düzenlenmesi üzerine Müze-i Hümayun Konya Şubesi kapatılarak müzede bulunan eserler yeni açılan Konya Asar-ı Atika Müzesi' nde sergilenmeye başlanır. Konya Asar-ı Atika Müzesi' nin 1953 yılında Mevlana Müzesi olarak düzenlenmesinden sonra arkeolojik eserler İplikçi camisine taşınır. 1962 yılında İplikçi camisinde bulunan eserler yeni yaptırılan bugünkü Konya Arkeoloji Müzesi binasına taşınır. Konya Arkeoloji Müzesi' nde Neolitik çağdan başlamak üzere, Eski Tunç, Orta Tunç ( Asur ticaret kolonileri ), Demir Çağı ( Frig, Urartu ), Klasik, Helenistik, Roma, Geç Roma devirlerine ait Konya ve çevresinde bulunan eserler sergilenmektedir. Müzede Çatalhöyük ve Karahöyük eserleri ile Roma dönemine tarihlendirilen lahitler dikkat çekicidir.

The Konya Archeological Museum is FULL of amazing artifacts! They display a small amount of extremely early civilization artifacts from Catalhuyuk as well as the Selcuk dynasty. My only disappointment was they displayed very little Christian history from 60AD-800AD. There are two stone pieces which are displayed outside which were discovered in Kilistra and Derbe.

A must in Konya! The museum is rife with Roman artefacts that demonstrate how Romans were settled in middle Anatolia. The section of Catalhoyuk artefacts is so impressive, you can see the baby skeleton with the bracelet and wall paintings. It will enrichen your neolithic period knowledge after a visit to Catalhoyuk. And all this is free of charge!!

This museum is small but has many beautiful displays, and it was free. The museum is open daily except Monday from 09:00 am to 12:00 noon and from 13:00 to 17:00 (1 to 5 pm) for TL2. Besides the expected Roman, Byzantine and Seljuk artifacts, the museum holds an assortment of finds from the Neolithic tumulus at Çatal Höyük.

I’m not going to say this place should be 5 stars, but it’s free. You really can’t complain when something is free. It was a small but fairly good museum. I wouldn’t go out it my way to visit, but it was a 15 minute walk from Alaaddin Hill so I decided to check it out. Well maintained, some really intricate sculptures.
