This museum was more exciting and engaging than the actual ruins on the site of Troy. An excellent, creative and informative presentation of the area's history. We easily spent about 2 hours walking around.

It is a military museum established to serve the need for informing the visitors about Çanakkale Naval Battle and Campaign. In the complex of the museum many guns and objects used during Çanakkale Battles, Çimenlik Fortress, Nusret Mine Layer, German Submarine, ACAR Museum ship used by ATATÜRK and a library can be found.
We had less than an hour to explore, having arrived late in the day but it was still very good. The ticket price was only 12TL, for that you get a small tour on a naval vessel, access to a gallery inside the fortress as well as a multitude of outdoor exhibits of weapons. We could have easily spent 2 hours here. The only minor criticism I could make was that many of the exhibits only have Turkish language information. I would have liked to have seen more exhibit descriptions in English.
