Silvan Atatürk Evi Museumvisitor guide.

As understood from the inscription on its 2nd floor, the edifice was constructed in Hijri 1320 (1902–1903) and was used by Hatip Bey, the Bey of Hazro, in 1908. When Mustafa Kemal Atatürk arrived in Silvan on April 15, 1916, it was allocated for his residence. Assigned to the eastern front during World War I, 16th Corps Commander Mustafa Kemal Atatürk arrived in Silvan with his headquarters on April 15, 1916, assumed regional command, and halted the Russian advance towards Diyarbakır. From here, he liberated Bitlis and Muş from enemy occupation (1916). The structure was expropriated by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism in 1980 and registered as Atatürk House in 1992. Undergoing restoration in 1992, the mansion was reorganized and opened to visits in 2024. WHILE YOU ARE HERE...
