Museums, which store and display the cultural heritage of a nation, tell us the memories of a society. Besides reflecting the accumulation of cultural heritage of the institutions, university museums also contribute to enhancement of the quality of art, science and education provided by that institution. In Ankara, major state universities such as the Middle East Technical University, Hacettepe University, Ankara University and Gazi University have established museums that exhibit an accumulation of science, technology and art heritage. Each individual university museum may be subject to special evaluation but Gazi Art Museum, which stands out with its most rooted history and inherited with Turkish Republic’s icon, is evaluated in the scope of “Art and Museology” for its architectural value and diverse collections. This study attempts to put forward some suggestions to improve the present situation condition of the museum. As an outline of this work; it is suggested to bring together the entire building, which was built by Architect Kemaleddin in 1927 and transferred to Gazi University by the High Council of Immovable Cultural and Natural Assets in 1984, to be converted into a museum. With the property’s architectural and historical attributes and Gazi University’s accumulated cultural heritage, the museum will become a world museum, instead of remaining just a university museum.
