Turkish Grand National Assembly Buıilding
The Grand National Assembly of Türkiye (TBMM) building was designed by Austrian architect Prof. Clemens Holzmeister. Construction began on October 26, 1939, but due to World War II, the building process was halted at times. After 1957, work resumed with increased speed, and the building was completed in January 1961. The TBMM building, which opened for service at the same time, covers an area of 475,000 square meters. The building is one of the largest parliamentary buildings in the world. During the coup attempt on the night of July 15, 2016, it was bombed four times by the coup plotters while members of parliament were inside. This attack damaged the Honor Gate, Dikmen Gate, and the visitor entrances. Visitor groups arriving by appointment are given a presentation on the history of the assembly, the building, and the campus in the listener’s box of the TBMM General Assembly Hall; afterwards, they are taken to tour the areas damaged during the July 15 coup attempt. Visits are held on mondays, fridays, and saturdays, with English presentations available for foreign guests.

Ankara Castle
Ankara Castle has been structurally reinforced and preserved through extensive restoration and renewal works in recent years. The outer fortifications follow a quadrangular plan and include approximately 20 towers. The castle has two main historical gates: the Outer Castle Gate to the west and the Hisar Gate to the south. The Ilkhanid-era Persian inscription dated 1330 above the Hisar Gate is still visible today. The inner castle was constructed partially with Ankara stone and partially with mixed masonry materials. Its walls vary between 14–16 meters in height, and according to up-to-date information, 42 pentagon-shaped towers (bastions) line the inner walls. Historic Ankara houses dating from at least the 17th century, mosques (including Alaeddin Mosque), fountains, and other civil architectural elements inside the castle remain standing. Through recent restoration practices, architectural authenticity has been preserved while ensuring long-term structural durability, turning the castle into both a heritage monument and a living cultural and tourism center in Ankara.

Steerıng Buıldıng
Known as the “Steering Building,” this structure was commissioned by Sultan Abdulhamid II and completed in 1892 during the construction of the Baghdad Railway. Between December 27, 1919, when Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk arrived in Ankara, and 1922, the building served as the headquarters and residence of the Commander-in-Chief, hosting some of the most significant domestic and foreign decisions of the era. The Turkish State Railways (TCDD) restored this valuable historic asset, which sheds light on our recent history and especially the early years of the Republic, and inaugurated it as a museum on December 24, 1964, contributing it to Ankara’s cultural heritage.
