Has been opened from April 16, 2012 onwards and officially opened on 18 September 2012 with the visit of Minister of Culture and Tourism Ertuğrul Günay. Alaçam Museum of Interchange is a museum composed of ethnographic works and a thematic museum at the same time. The works in the museum consist of daily use articles, documents and photographs brought by the compulsive relatives who were subjected to forced marriage with the additional protocol of 24 July 1923 in Lausanne Treaty.       According to the signed protocol; Apart from Istanbul and Western Thrace, the Turks in Greece and the Greek Cypriots in Turkey were subjected to forced resignation. This mass and compulsory mourning is called "exchange" and the people subjected to the exchange are called "mubadil". Approximately 1.250.000 Orthodox Christians migrated from Anatolia to Greece, while about 500.000 Muslim Turks were immigrated to Anatolia with this forced migration based on religious principles. Approximately two million people were separated from their homelands and moved to new settlements with the first official forced migration of peoples in the history         Between December 31, 1923 and July 1924, 44.255 immigrants were brought to Samsun. While some of the funerals are placed in Alaçam, Tekkeköy, Bafra, Ondokuzmayıs, Çarşamba and Terme districts, we see that they have been moved to the inner areas by Tokat, Amasya, Çorum, Sivas, Yozgat and Niğde.   The Museum Building was constructed as an Iptive Mektebi in the last quarter of the 19th century, and served again as a public building in different functions in later periods. Above ground is single storey. Marble roof is covered with tiled roof.      Museum entrance floor: Administrative section, documentation, wc and warehouse. The Documentation section consists of photo albums of photographs belonging to the exchange and district history and the photographs belonging to the years of the exchange.     Second floor: It is the part where the works are furnished. The supplementary protocol to our Lausanne Treaty on January 30, 1923, and Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's "Memorandum of Understanding is the Holy Memories of Lost Land" welcomes visitors.    Our showcases also include dresses used in special occasions of the virgin women (such as bindalli, bridal gown, three skirts, cepken, şalvar, bridal headscarf) as well as men 's clothes. The clothes, the circles, the generations, the peshir which are exhibited in the museum are works usually prepared as dowry. Therefore, they are heavily processed with techniques such as chain, wire breaking, wire winding.
