Story
Trabzon, the historic port city of the Black Sea, keeps the traces of a thousand years of civilization within its city museum in Ortahisar. With its precious artifacts from the Byzantine and Ottoman periods, the museum takes visitors on a journey into the past. Ceramics, silver work, leatherwork, and religious objects offer a glimpse into the artistic tradition of local craftsmen, while Ottoman coins reveal Trabzon's economic importance and everyday tools open a window onto the working life of its people. The museum holds especially important documents from the era of Sumela Monastery that attest to the closeness of Muslim and Christian cultures. An intriguing detail: among the coins on display are mintings from different empires, showing how many civilizations crossed paths in Trabzon throughout history. When you visit, listen to the stories of the local guides; they convey, in the most heartfelt way, the lived histories behind the artifacts and Trabzon's journey from Byzantium to the present day.
