Kocaeli Archaeology Museumvisitor guide.

Located on İstasyon Avenue in Kozluk Neighborhood, İzmit District, Kocaeli Province, the Old Railway Station Precinct spans 21 decares. Designed by German architect Otto Ritter, historical station buildings were constructed between 1873 and 1910. The Old Station and Warehouse buildings were preserved holistically; following restorations, the Old Station serves as Kocaeli Regional Board for Conservation of Cultural Heritage. Within the complex serving as Archaeology and Ethnography Museum stand a repair workshop, water tower, and lodgings. Two former Tekel depots were combined to form exhibition galleries for archaeological and ethnographic collections. The Archaeology and Ethnography Museum exhibits artifacts spanning Paleolithic, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman eras.
