Hakkari's city archive and ethnography museum is not a municipal institution but a directorate of Hakkari University, and it is housed in the Meydan Medrese. The university's own pages carry announcements and opening notices for it but no account of what is held or shown inside, so anyone planning a visit should check the current hours with the university first.
