Trabzon Museum (Kostaki Konağı)visitor guide.

Arranged as the Trabzon Museum, the mansion located on Zeytinlik Street was commissioned in the early 1900s (1898–1913) by banker Kostaki Theophylaktos as an extensive private residence. The names of the mansion's architects could not be determined. However, it is established that the architects of the building were Italian, and many of the materials used in its construction were imported from Italy. When Kostaki Theophylaktos went bankrupt in 1917, all of his assets were seized alongside this magnificent residence, and the mansion was acquired by the Nemlioğlu family. Used as a military headquarters building during the years of the National Struggle, the mansion was arranged to accommodate Mustafa Kemal Atatürk during his first visit to Trabzon in 1924. Atatürk, his wife Latife Hanım, and the accompanying delegation stayed in this historic residence between September 15 and 17, 1924. Arranged as the Trabzon Museum, the mansion on Zeytinlik Street was originally built in the early 1900s (1898–1913) by banker Kostaki Theophylaktos as a large-scale residence.
