Story

Located in the historic center of Kütahya, the Germiyan Mansions bear the traces of the pre-Ottoman period. Having served as the administrative center of the Germiyanid Principality, these buildings stand out with their facades adorned with elegant stonework and geometric motifs. The spacious courtyards, symmetrical windows, and indoor fountains vividly convey the way of life of that era. These mansions document the transitional phase of Seljuk architecture into the Ottoman period. Kütahya was, after Ankara, the most important center of the region, strategically positioned on the trade routes; the Germiyanid administration's choice of this geography reflects the preference of a seat of power. Before visiting, meeting with a local guide and coming early in the morning will let you encounter the silent witnesses of history in the shade of the courtyards.
