The Constitution of 1961, officially titled the Constitution of the Republic of Turkey (), was the fundamental law of Turkey from 1961 to 1982. It was introduced following the 1960 "coup d'état", replacing the earlier Constitution of 1924. It was approved in a referendum held on 9 July 1961, with 61.7% of the nation voting in favor. It remained in force until the 1980 "coup d'état", following which it was replaced by a new document, the Constitution of 1982, which remains in force today.
