Tile Museum

Unravel History through Tiles: Experience Kütahya's Artistic Heritage!

Tile Museum

The museum building was constructed in 1411 by Yakup II, the last ruler of Germiyan, and now operates as the Tile Museum after being restored in 1999. Yakup II's tiled sarcophagus can be found in the building's tomb section. The foundation inscription of the madrasa, now placed in the south niche of the entrance door, is a significant historical source with thirty-nine lines. Locals call the building 'Gökşadırvan' due to its marble fountain. The museum exhibits various tile architectural elements, inscriptions, vases, plates, panels, and household utensils made in Kütahya and Iznik from the 14th century to the present day, displayed chronologically.
