Museum Of The History Of Science and Technology in Islam

Museum is located on the outskirts of Gulhane Park, in the former Imperial Stables building. It occupies a 3,500-square-meter exhibition space and displays 570 tool and gadget samples and model collections. It is Turkey's first museum and the world's second after Frankfurt, with this collection of specialties.

The Institute for the Islamic science history of Arab-Islamic Sciences at Frankfurt's Johann Wolfgang Goethe University created the majority of these reproductions, which were based on descriptions and illustrations in written sources and originals of the surviving works.

The globe, which is a reproduction of one of the most important scientific-historical achievements of Arab-Islamic geography, is unquestionably a museum's centerpiece.

It is located just in front of the ancient building's entryway. You can also look at the world map with a spherical projection created on behalf of the caliph Al-Ma'mûn (reigned 813-833 AD), which accurately depicts the geography of the known world at the time. Prof. Dr. Fuat Sezgin's hard research has yielded remarkable discoveries and scientific-historical processing.
