This article explores the methods used to evaluate the performance of museums. Museums play a significant role in public and cultural life through their social and educational functions, and the objective assessment of their performance is essential both for state policy and museum management. The article analyzes the main evaluation methods, including both qualitative and quantitative approaches, and examines the applicability of indicator systems based on international practices. The research employs both statistical analysis and expert evaluation methods. The results show that systematic and objective evaluation mechanisms can contribute to enhancing museum efficiency and developing strategic growth plans.
