Its story
The house in the Koçakdede neighborhood, with a history of about 300 years, is presented as one of the oldest preserved homes in Karaman. The hand-carved wooden decoration on the ceiling medallions, cupboard doors and doors is the most striking feature of the building. Its last owner, Hürrem Hanım, donated the house to the Karaman Municipality in 2006; after restoration it was arranged as a house museum. In the rooms, daily life in old Karaman houses is re-created with local items.
