To enjoy the museum you have to read the novel. The book and the museum are connected. If you bring your copy of the book, you get to visit the museum for free. Hope it's opened again soon.

This is a fantastic museum for fans of the book, but unfortunately it is closed for the time being due to COVID.
It has a unique feel to it from start to end, expect to spend around 2 hours cause ut's full of very interesting collection of items.
A must-see if you have read (or are still reading) the homonymous book written by Orhan Pamuk. In the first page of each copy of the book there is a free-ticket to be stamped at the entrance. A wonderful museum built with extreme care for details, the atmosphere is magic and makes you feel even more a part of the story.
It was empty almost. They were preparing for a new art gallery maybe.
The Museum of Innocence is both a novel by Orhan Pamuk and a museum he has set up. From the very beginnings of the project, since the 1990s, Pamuk has conceived of novel and museum together. The novel, which is about love, is set between 1974 and the early ’00s, and describes life in Istanbul between 1950 and 2000 through memories and flashbacks centred around two families – one wealthy, the other lower middle class. The museum presents what the novel’s characters used, wore, heard, saw, collected and dreamed of, all meticulously arranged in boxes and display cabinets. It is not essential to have read the book in order to enjoy the museum, just as it is not necessary to have visited the museum in order to fully enjoy the book. But those who have read the novel will better grasp the many connotations of the museum, and those who have visited the museum will discover many nuances they had missed when reading the book. The novel was published in 2008, the museum opened in Spring 2012.
A very well decorated museum, cozy and intimate, following an interesting novel of Orhan Pamuk, but with a creepy \love story\, between an obsessed guy and a girl. The museum represents a collection of personal belongings of this woman, collected by a man who was in love with her. At the las floor there are few original manuscripts of Pamuk's \Museum of Innocence\ novel. The access fee is 40TL.
A whole new take on museum experience. It felt captivating, emotional and utterly personal. I had read the novel before, and this museum not only helped me recollect some details that might have been forgotten with time, but also allowed me to dip my toes into the cultural context of the novel. This museum, as much as the novel itself, is one in its kind, being a link that connects the world of fiction and the world of reality. Passing by those shelves stacked with meticulously collected objects, you struggle to understand how all of this has never been real. Or was it?..
