Tekirdağ Muratlı Atatürk Evi Museumvisitor guide.

In this single-story house consisting of three rooms and a kitchen, photographs regarding Atatürk's arrival in Muratlı and ethnographic artifacts are exhibited today. Muratlı District of Tekirdağ Province was established to settle a portion of Turks who emigrated from Bulgaria in 1934–1935 pursuant to the population exchange clause of the Treaty of Lausanne dated July 24, 1923. Visiting Muratlı on June 3, 1936, to inspect the ongoing construction of immigrant dwellings on site, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was hosted in a home opposite the railway station. The daughter of the family living in this house served coffee to Atatürk. The house was well-furnished according to the conditions of that day. Atatürk was pleased. He said, 'Write, my daughter: O fortunate immigrant, Never forget June 3rd, The greatest man of the homeland, Visited your house as a guest, Bestowed love upon you all.'
