The museum has numerous exhibition halls where prehistoric and historic artifacts dating back to the Phrygian, Lydian, Greek and Byzantine periods are on display. Some of the exhibits include a large coin collection, a bronze sculpture of Herakles from 200 A.D. which has become a popular symbol for the museum, ethnographic artifacts from different eras dating back to pre-history, mosaics, and much more. The museum garden is dotted with Bronze Age, Phrygian, Lydian and Urartian effects and Hellenistic pottery items.
