Constitutional Court, Plenary · Hürmet Alpay and Others · Application No. 2020/27651 · 18.09.2025
In Hürmet Alpay and Others, the Constitutional Court found a property-rights violation arising from the blanket exclusion of age, rarity and artistic value from compensation for a cultural property. The ruling highlights compensation reflecting the property’s actual value. The extent of any increase depends on the property’s characteristics; the decision does not establish a fixed uplift for all cultural properties.
