Atatürk Pavilion

The building, which is located in the pine forests of Soguksu ridge overlooking Trabzon, was built by Kostantin Kabayanidis as a summer house in 1890. Large and flamboyant European symbols were used in the building, which has the effects of European and Western Renaissance architecture. The exterior of the mansion shows stonework and the interior is in Bağdadî technique. The floors were paved with tiles of the period as the effect of the same trend.
When Atatürk honored Trabzon for the first time on September 15-17, 1924, he was hosted in the mansion, which was organized as Trabzon Museum today. On September 15, he saw the mansion and liked it very much. When he honored Trabzon for the second time between 27 and 29 November 1930, he was hosted at the Old Turkish Quarry building.
