Ephesus was an ancient port city whose well-preserved ruins are in modern-day Türkiye. The city was once considered the most important Greek city and the trading center in the Mediterranean region. Today the Ancient City of Ephesus which attracts more than 3 million visitors worldwide annually, is listed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The Ephesus Experience Museum located in the heart of Ephesus Ancient City, is the first of its kind, combining scientific archaeological knowledge with storytelling, emotions, people and high-end technology. Our goal was to create a museum that preserves the original texture of Ephesus while utilizing cutting-edge technology to showcase this unique world heritage. We incorporated state-of-the-art technologies, emphasizing the importance of historical preservation.

We aim to provide an engaging visual experience that combines reality and mythology. By integrating virtual reality, 3D animations, artificial intelligence, and other cutting-edge technologies, we offer an immersive and personalized museum experience.

The museum consists of three separate halls, each offering a multi-lingual audio guide in 17 different languages with video synchronization. Professional headphones, sound effects, and immersive content create an environment that transports visitors to the streets of the historical city of Ephesus.

In the First Hall, mapping techniques using 33 projection devices create images on walls, floors, and angled ceilings.

The Second Hall features a unique mapping application with 90 high-end projection devices and sound system that simulates an earthquake. The combination of images, sound effects, and storytelling provides visitors with an immersive 360-degrees experience.

The Third Hall contains a replica of Artemis, the goddess of nature. It is one of the 7 wonders of the world, is dedicated to the goddess. Artemis the main character of our story. This life-sized replica is accompanied with LED Screens, a sound system with 40 speakers, and various light shows.

The collaboration between Dem Museums and distributor and system integrator Astel Professional Display Systems has resulted in a world-class museum experience with the support of content creation by Marshmallow Laser Feast and exhibition design by Atelier Brückner.
