Its story
The Yozgat Museum opened to visitors in 1985 in the two-story wooden Nizamoğlu Mansion, completed in 1871. The mansion was also used for a time as a girls' art school and a Tekel (state monopoly) depot. The ceilings of the two guest rooms on the upper floor are worked like carpets; the walls have paintings on subjects such as the justice of the Prophet Solomon, Napoleon's wars and the Yozgat fire. In 2008 the halls on the lower floor were devoted to archaeological works from excavations in the region. The collection contains 1,370 archaeological works, 2,731 ethnographic works and 2,713 coins.
