The Kütahya house, part by part
The old houses of Kütahya share one plan: a stone ground floor, a timber frame above it and rooms that open onto one hall. Switch between the street view and the cutaway, press a number and read the part. Add the parts you want to find to the walk card; Copy gives you the list and two Turkish questions to ask.
- Taşlık stone ground floor The ground floor is built of masonry. It held the horse stable, the store for farm tools, the cellar, the coal shed and the hearth. It has few, small windows.
- Sokak kapısı street door A house is usually entered through a street door that leads on to the garden. These doors are the only decoration of the street front: two leaves held by timber bands, with forged nails. A second door opens to the back garden.
- Çatkı ve kerpiç dolgu timber frame with mud-brick fill Above the stone floor stands a timber frame whose gaps are filled with mud brick (kerpiç) and plastered. The plaster is painted white, off-yellow, ochre or indigo; the beams, window frames and lattices keep the colour of the wood.
- Çıkma bay on timber brackets The directorate calls the bay on timber brackets (payanda) the most important feature of the style. Upper floors reach out over the street, and on three-floor houses the bays step out one above the other. A bay is also called cumba.
- Kafes timber lattice A lattice of thin timber strips fills a window or a bay. In houses of the 19th and early 20th centuries the decoration moves outward, to the window frames, the eaves, the lattices and the bay brackets.
- Saçak eaves The roof has either four slopes or two and is covered with curved tiles. The eaves reach out far, and chimneys rise a little above the ridge under a small roof of their own. In the 19th and early 20th centuries the eaves carry decoration.
- Çeşme street fountain Nearly every street has a fountain, so for a long time houses had no water supply. A fountain stands at a neighbour’s door or in the garden wall on the street side; some courtyards have a well.
- Hayat the hall The hall is called hayat in Kütahya. It is roofed, and in older houses its sides are open; two sides are closed against cold wind and rain. All the room doors open onto it. On one side there is a small coffee hearth, on the other a place for washing before prayer.
- Köşk raised seat in the hall Where all the doors open onto the hall, the floor is raised for a sitting and resting corner called seki or köşk. An upper floor may also have a köşk that juts out of the house, a cihannüma, a lookout over the town.
- Baş oda head room The main room has seats all round the walls and a hearth. Its ceiling, hearth hood, cupboard doors and doors are carved in many pieces. When guests come, the meal is laid in it for the men; the household eats in the day room.
- Çarkıfelek ceiling boss Laths nailed over the ceiling boards make shapes, with a boss in the middle and a quarter of it at each side. The middle boss is the çarkıfelek. Some head rooms have a tile plate set in the centre.
- Yüklük, kavukluk, şerbetlik built-in cupboards and niches There are no bedrooms, so quilts and beds are put away every morning in the yüklük, the bedding cupboard. The kavukluk holds the kavuk, a man’s headgear, and the şerbetlik the sherbet, a sweet fruit syrup; in the head room these are richly decorated.
- Gusülhane washing cupboard A house has no bathroom. People went to the neighbourhood hammam at least once a week; in the room a low two-leaf door opens to a zinc-floored cupboard for washing, with no plumbing. Water is heated and brought in buckets.

Where it is: a city under a castle hill
Kütahya is the name of a province (il) and of its main city. The old core lies below two hills, Hisar with the castle and Hıdırlık; a stream runs between them and divides the town from south to north. The town spreads from the foot of Hisar hill, about 1,000 m high, over the plain to the north (TDV İslâm Ansiklopedisi). The province borders seven others.

A short history: from Kotiaeion to 1922
The name Kütahya comes from Kotiaeion, the city’s ancient name (TDV İslâm Ansiklopedisi). The Culture Portal of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism puts the area’s history at about 7,000 years. The dates below follow the TDV where the sources differ.
- Before 1078Phrygians, Lydians and Persians rule the area, then Alexander the Great and his successors; Rome takes it in 133 BC. Under Byzantium it is a bishop’s seat, and the castle walls are Byzantine work of the 5th century.
- 1078–1233The Anatolian Seljuk state, founded in 1078, takes Kütahya. Turks hold it again from 1233, when the Seljuk sultan Alâeddin Keykubad takes it back from the Empire of Nicaea, a successor state of Byzantium. The Yoncalı Hamam, a bath house, carries an inscription of 1234.
- About 1300The Germiyanoğulları («sons of Germiyan», a Turkmen dynasty) make Kütahya the capital of their beylik, a small state ruled by a bey, a Turkish lord. Umur bin Savcı has the Vâcidiye Madrasa built in 1314.
- 1381Süleyman Şah of Germiyan marries his daughter to Bayezid, a son of the Ottoman sultan Murad I. Kütahya, Simav, Eğrigöz and Tavşanlı pass to the Ottomans as her dowry (çeyiz), and Bayezid goes to Kütahya as governor.
- 1390–1429In 1390 Bayezid, now sultan, takes all the Germiyan land. After the Ottoman defeat at Ankara in 1402 Yakub II returns to Kütahya. He has no son and tells Murad II in 1428 that his land will pass to him; when he dies in 1429, Kütahya becomes an Ottoman sancak, a district under a governor.
- 1451Kütahya becomes the seat of the Anatolian beylerbeylik, the province of the governor-general of Anatolia.
- 1833–1867The Treaty of Kütahya (1833) ends the advance of İbrahim Paşa, the son of the governor of Egypt, who had reached the town. Kütahya is the centre of Hüdavendigâr province from 1841, gets its municipality in 1857 and loses the province seat to Bursa in 1867.
- 1850–1851After the 1848 revolutions Hungarian leaders find refuge in the Ottoman state. Lajos Kossuth is hosted in Kütahya from 1850 to 1851.
- July 1921The Greek army enters Kütahya and holds it for more than a year.
- 30 August 1922The Great Offensive begins on 26 August, and Kütahya is freed on 30 August at 18:00 (chapter 6).

The old town: castle, mosques, bazaars and houses
The roads of the old quarters widen as they run toward the Great Mosque (Ulu Cami), which the directorate calls the main centre. The big mosques, neighbourhood mosques, inns, covered markets, baths, fountains and tombs make up the rest of the old town. Nine places from the directorate’s pages:
Kütahya Castle
Lived in since ancient times. The walls are Byzantine work of the 5th century, repaired and added to by the Seljuks, the Germiyan and the Ottomans. The castle has three parts, the upper, inner and lower castle, with towers set close together: 72 by the count of the traveller Evliya Çelebi.
Ulu Cami
Begun under Bayezid I in 1381–1384 and finished in 1410; it is also called the Yıldırım Beyazıt Mosque. It measures 45 × 25 m and its big columns were brought from Aizanoi. The architect Mimar Sinan repaired it in the 16th century, and a large repair in 1893 gave it its dome.
Vâcidiye Madrasa
Built in 1314 by the Germiyan bey Umur bin Savcı, of cut stone, with an entrance in Seljuk style and nine small rooms around a domed centre. It is the home of the Archaeological Museum (chapter 4).
Mevlevihane, Dönenler Camii
Built in the 14th century as the ceremony hall of the Mevlevi order (the order of the poet Mevlana, known for its turning dance), Kütahya’s first lodge. It is now a mosque, known as Dönenler Camii, «the mosque of the turners», and the dervish cells survive.
Great and Small Bedesten
Two covered markets built in the 15th century by Gedik Ahmed Paşa; both were restored in 2008. The directorate names two rows of shops (arasta) between the Takvacılar and Saadettin mosques as the town’s trade centre.
Old Government House
Built in 1905 under the governor Fuat Paşa; in 1907 its outer face was covered with Kütahya tiles, the only building decorated so. A small mosque inside has tiled walls. Restored in 1999, it is now the courthouse (Adalet Sarayı).
Rüstem Paşa Madrasa
Rüstem Paşa, grand vizier and son-in-law of Süleyman the Magnificent, had it built in 1550. It was pulled down in the 1930s; the gate and the parts that could be traced were restored and the madrasa rebuilt as a crafts bazaar, since the original plan is unknown.
Evliya Çelebi
The 17th-century traveller wrote that his grandfather Kara Ahmed Bey is buried beside the family’s house in the Zeryen neighbourhood, now Maltepe. A culture and art house was rebuilt beside the tomb, and a monument stands at the road into the town from Eskişehir (2002).
Hıdırlık hill
South of the Great Mosque, with a small Seljuk mosque of 1243–1244: a square room under one dome. All of Kütahya can be seen from the hill.
The timber houses
Kütahya belongs to the timber-house region of western Anatolia, on a line from Balıkesir through Uşak to Antalya. Old houses in the core neighbourhoods include:
- Defterdar Konağı, in the Sultanbağı neighbourhood.
- The Hacı İsmail Efendi house, in Kurşunlu, and the Bandımzade house in Gazi Kemal.
- Germiyan Konağı, in Pirler. A «Germiyan Beyliği Konağı» has been the governorate’s culture and art house since 15.05.2018.
A house had no bathroom: people went to the neighbourhood hammam. What a visit is like: A day at a Turkish hammam.

Çini, the tile craft
Çini (CHEE-nee) is hand-painted tile and ceramic ware, and the craft that made Kütahya known. There are nearly 500 workshops (atölye), by the directorate’s count. Blue-and-white tiles of the 15th century can be seen in the Hisarbey Mosque, dated 1487.
How çini differs from porcelain, and where the factories are, is in Kütahya porcelain and çini.

Museums: tiles, finds and the Kossuth House
Three museums stand in the old town, two of them beside the Great Mosque. The Ministry of Culture and Tourism lists all three on its museum site, muze.gov.tr.
Kütahya Çini Museum
In the Paşamsultan neighbourhood, beside the Ulu Cami, in the complex that Yakub II had built in 1411: an imaret (a public kitchen that fed the poor), madrasa, mosque, library and hammam. The imaret and tomb section was restored as a museum in 1999. Cabinets show tiles, inscriptions, vases, plates and household things made in Kütahya and İznik from the 14th century to today, and Yakub II’s tiled tomb chest stands here. The texts of an agreement of 13 July 1766 between the cup-makers’ masters and journeymen, which the directorate calls the first collective labour agreement in history, can be read there.
Kütahya Museum
Inside the Vâcidiye Madrasa, open since 1965. Its cases run from the Palaeolithic through Phrygian, Hellenistic, Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman times. Among its finds is the Amazon sarcophagus, a stone coffin found in a rescue dig at Aizanoi, carved in high relief with battles between Greeks and Amazons. It was found in 1960, and the museum dates it to about AD 160.
Kossuth House Museum
A two-floor timber house with seven rooms in a garden, in Macar Sokak, known as the Hungarian House (Macar Evi). The directorate calls it a Turkish house of the 18th century. Opened as a museum on 19 September 1982, it shows Kossuth’s belongings and ethnographic items from a classic Turkish house.
