Kaymakamlar Museum

Safranbolu


This typical Safranbolu home has all the classic features of Ottoman houses. Once owned by a lieutenant colonel, it still feels like an address of note as you climb the stairs looking up to the wooden ceiling decoration. Tableaux (featuring some rather weary mannequins) re-create scenes such as bathing in a cupboard and a wedding feast.

There's a peaceful cafe in the garden outside.
