Abstract :The Società Operaia Italiana di Mutuo Soccorso in Costantinopoli (The Italian Workers’ Association) was founded in 1863, in Beyoğlu/Pera and Giuseppe Garibaldi was its founding president. The existing building of the Association dates back to 1885 and it was last restored in 1909; after more than a century it needed further restoration and modernization. The Garibaldi Gallery inside the Consulate General of Italy in Istanbul was created to host the artworks (mainly statues, paintings, and textiles), the precious documents (architectural drawings, letters, registers, and meeting minutes) and the historic books that belong to the Association during the restoration process, to make sure they remain accessible even while the building remains closed to public.Keywords : İtalyan Konsolosluğu, geçici müze, restorasyon
