Bolu Museum & Old Town

Bolu Müzesi

The provincial museum in the city centre displays archaeological finds and folk culture. Nearby are the Yıldırım Bayezid Mosque and the old Taş Han market.

Bolu Museum sits in the city centre. Its collection covers finds from prehistoric times to the Byzantine period, including Roman statues and coins from the ancient city of Claudiopolis, as well as folk costumes and woodcraft. It is a small museum, and a visit takes about an hour. Within walking distance are the 14th-century Yıldırım Bayezid Mosque and the old Upper and Lower Taş Han caravanserais, which now house small shops and teahouses. The museum is closed on Mondays, and admission is inexpensive.
