Saburhane and Historic Muğla Houses

Its story

Muğla's old town is an urban conservation area with about 400 registered houses, most from the 18th and 19th centuries, nearly a hundred streets, and hans, fountains and mosques. Saburhane Square takes its name from the prison that once stood here. The courtyard layout of Muğla houses, their wooden ornamentation, porches and the rectangular Muğla chimneys that have become the city's symbol are best seen in these streets. In recent years many buildings have been restored by the governorship and the municipality and opened to cultural tourism.
