Tile Museum

TIME : 2016/2/19 2:47:49

Behind Ulu Cami, the (non-working) İmaret Cami showcases Kütahya's kiln-fired past, with pottery including large jugs and plates by masters like Hacı Hafiz Mehmet Emin Efendi (who worked on İstanbul's Haydarpaşa station), plus İznik tiles and local embroidery. The 14th-century, blue-tiled tomb of Yakup Bey (r. 139–-1409), one of the Germanid Sultanate's last leaders, is also here.
