Its story
The mansion was commissioned by Osman Ağa of the Hacı Alizade (Çamaş) family, which had a say in the administration of the Çamaş area. The building, dated 1909, was built using stone and chestnut wood and has 18 rooms; in its courtyard there are a soup kitchen and an oven. It is referred to as the largest mansion in Ordu and is considered an important example in the region of late Ottoman civil architecture. In 2012 it was registered and placed under protection by the Samsun Regional Council for the Conservation of Cultural Assets. The building, which remained empty for a long time, has been expropriated and its restoration has begun to open it to tourism. The historic Külekçi Mosque, commissioned by the family in 1811, is also nearby.
