TILED WALLS
The interior walls feature tiles created by Turgut Tuna and Şebnem Tuna. These designs are inspired by exemplary tiles from the 15th and 16th centuries, such as those in Yeşil Türbe, Yeni Kaplıca, and Şehzade Mustafa Türbe, and reinterpret traditional methods faithfully.
CHRONOLOGICAL EXHIBITION AREA AND REPLICAS
In the gallery area, complementary to the panoramic painting, there are 16 paintings depicting significant events of the early Ottoman period, from Ertuğrulgazi to Murad II, along with replicas connected to the artworks.
FIRST OTTOMANS DOCUMENTARY
It narrates the rise of the Ottoman Empire, from a small principality to a world-spanning empire over centuries.
PANORAMA AREA
A 3D visual depicts the conquest of Bursa on April 6, 1326. This platform shows the coexistence of two civilizations, illustrating both Byzantine and Ottoman populations. Unlike other conquest museums, this one emphasizes peace. Sounds of flowing water, galloping horses, kopuz music, and birds accompany the springtime depiction of Bursa’s conquest day. The area includes over 10,000 figures of humans and animals, with 2,450 m² of painted surfaces and 700 m² of 3D objects, totaling 3,150 m². The scene depicts Byzantine citizens leaving the city, welcomed by Ottomans in a festive atmosphere, with the symbol of the Ottoman Empire—a grand plane tree—and the iconic Judas tree of Bursa, celebrated annually until the 1855 earthquake.
