Its story

The han, whose construction date is not recorded, was built according to local accounts in the 1850s. The trapezoidal, two-story building has a square courtyard with an open pool in the middle and shops around it. For many years the center of Arapgir's commercial life, the han is part of the bazaar fabric that developed after the town moved to its new site in the 19th century. It can be seen while touring Arapgir's bazaar, known for its hand-woven manusa cloth and local products.
