The Museum of Turkish and Islamic Art is located in the former palace of Ibrahim Pasha (16th century) on Sultanahmet Square. The museum was opened in 1914, but was then called the Efkafi Islamie Museum (Museum of the Islamic Foundation) and huddled in the building of the dining room Suleimaniye Mosque. The museum received its current name after the proclamation of the Turkish Republic, and moved to the palace in 1938.
