Its story

The museum occupies a tower-shaped building rising at the entrance to the Gökçay Recreation Area. At the heart of the collection are carpets and kilims gathered from Isparta and different regions of Anatolia; a Yörük nomad tent, looms, garments and rose-oil stills are also on display. Moving between the floors, you can follow how weaving motifs change from region to region. From the viewing section on the top floor there is a panoramic view of the city.
