Visually Impaired Section

On the ground floor, there is a small model of the museum for visually impaired visitors. The labels written in braille alphabet and audio about natural history help visitors to have knowledge on specimens and the museum. In this section there are casts of fossils and animals, footprints of man which is one of the masterpieces at the museum, prehistoric stone tools and old mining equipments. And also by the small statues of the Baluchitherium (the largest land mammal that ever existed ) and dinosaurs such as Brachiosaurus, Allosaurus and Stegosaurus, visitors will have an idea of the life in the past. Temporary exhibitions were held on Konya, Niğde, Adana, Kayseri at visually impaired schools in 2015-2016.
