Description:
Mansion: Every effort was made to remain entirely faithful to the buildings original interior and exterior decorations. The other building: next to Sadberk Hanim Museum was a wholly demolished building constructed in the middle of the 19th century. The Vehbi Koç Foundation bought it in 1984 and restored it.
