It Will be the First in Turkey, Not Only in Konya

The historical Sille Subaşı Bathhouse, located in the Sille neighborhood and restored by Selçuklu Municipality, is being transformed into the "Architecture Museum".

Sille, one of the significant tourism centers of Konya and Turkey, is gaining value through the restoration efforts undertaken by Selçuklu Municipality. In this context, the historical Sille Subaşı Bathhouse, after its restoration has been completed, is regaining its historical identity thanks to exemplary cooperation between Selçuklu Municipality and the Konya Chamber of Architects. It is being transformed into Turkey's first Architecture Museum.

Upon the completion of the project, the building, which will function as both a museum and a boutique establishment, will not only contribute to tourism but also serve as a source of inspiration for professionals practicing the field of architecture.

Former President of the Konya Branch of the Chamber of Architects, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Armağan Güleç Korumaz, expressed his immense happiness over the achievement of bringing such a project to Konya. He stated, "As the Konya Branch of the Chamber of Architects, we are extremely pleased because we were able to provide Konya with such a project. This will be Turkey's first architecture museum. Although there have been some small and independent initiatives before, we take great joy and pride in officially bringing Turkey's first architecture museum to Konya and Sille."

The allocation protocol for Sille Subaşı Bathhouse, Çamaşırhane, and Müstemilat Buildings was signed between Selçuklu Mayor Ahmet Pekyatırmacı and Konya Branch President of the Chamber of Architects, Ahmet Övet. The signing ceremony for the protocol was also attended by the former branch president, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Armağan Güleç Korumaz.
