When the tourism policies of the countries were examined, it can be seen that that a very limited number of countries have knowledge and practices on accessible tourism. Museums, which are the most important building blocks of tourism, play an important role in both the creation of accessible tourism and the socialization of all individuals in society. Ensuring the accessibility of museums, which also makes important contributions to cultural sustainability, can be effective in shaping the museums of the future. In this context, the aim of this research was to evaluate the accessible museums of the future in terms of the views of teacher candidates trained in museums and lecturers taught and experienced in special education and to make recommendations. The sample group of the research consists of teacher candidates trained in museums (n=20) and lecturers taught and experienced in special education (n=22). The research data were carried out with the Phenomenology model which is one of the qualitative research methods. The data was collected through a semi-structured interview form. The data were analyzed by descriptive method. Research findings revealed that the interviewees think that accesible musems of the future have deficiency in time-space concept, the creation of virtual environments and digital infrastructures. In addition, they stated that there are deficiencies in accessing museums such as digital tools, architectural infrastructure, and virtual museums, and that these should be eliminated, and necessary stakeholders should be trained. Within the scope of the research, it is recommended that subject experts should provide training on accessibility to the Ministry of Tourism and Culture, officials and workers in museums, in archaeological sites and in historical places by taking the results of this study into consideration. Also, in order to obtain a permit for a new museum, ensuring the necessary mentioned conditions must become an important necessity. These will lead to a smooth accesibilty to museums for all stakeholers.
