Rize Atatürk Museum occupies a late 19th-century Ottoman house where Mustafa Kemal Atatürk lodged on September 17, 1924. The two-story wooden building, restored to its original appearance, displays period furniture, photographs, and personal items belonging to Atatürk. Visitors can explore the rooms where he worked and rested, gaining insight into his brief but significant connection to the city. The museum also features exhibits on Rize's history and culture, making it a compact but meaningful stop for those interested in Turkey's republican era.
