Its story
The mansion was commissioned in 1896 by Paşaoğlu Hüseyin Efendi; its stone was brought from Ünye and its timber from Romania, and it was built by a master from Istanbul. Rich stonework, columns with capitals at the corners and stone-framed windows are the prominent features of the facade. Inside there are wooden ceilings decorated with oil paint on paper, medallions with landscapes and a tiled hamam. Expropriated in 1982, the mansion's restoration was completed in 1987 and it opened under the name Paşaoğlu Mansion and Ethnography Museum.
