The museum, which sheds light on the history of coffee, has gained a "special" status. Located in the Safranbolu district of Karabük, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List, the “Turkish Coffee Museum” has been given the status of a “private museum” by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
The Turkish Coffee Museum was opened 500 years ago to reflect the coffee culture of Anatolia, which has a history of approximately 3 years.
The museum was founded by Naim Koca and Atilla Narin, and Semih Yıldırım, the authors of the book “The Lost Coffees of Anatolia”. In the museum, materials describing the coffee culture and history, which has sunk into oblivion, are exhibited.
The museum is located in the Cinci Inn, which was built in 1645 by Molla Hüseyin Efendi from Safranbolu. Coffee is served to those who visit the museum.
In the museum, 100-150 years old coffee pot, cups, hand grinders, roasting pans, scales, wooden spoons, water cubes and sugar containers are exhibited. The smell of coffee surrounding the museum takes the visitors on a pleasant journey.
The museum, which has attracted many local and foreign tourists since its opening, has been given the status of "private museum" by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
