Sinop Ethnography Museum
Sinop Etnografya Müzesi
An ethnographic museum set in a 19th-century Ottoman-style timber house, with rooms recreating the daily life, costumes and crafts of old Sinop families.
The Ethnography Museum occupies a 19th-century Ottoman-style house in the old town. Its rooms, including the living room, bedrooms and kitchen, are recreated as they would have appeared originally. Displays include local costumes, embroidery, copperware, weapons and wedding items, giving a picture of traditional life in the towns along the Black Sea coast. The museum is small, the entry fee is low, and a visit takes about 40 minutes. It is about 5 minutes on foot from the Archaeological Museum and fits well with a tour of the old town's historic sites.
