Bolaman Castle, Ethnographic museum and castle in Fatsa, Turkey
The castle stands on a rocky peninsula with inner and outer walls made of cut stones, featuring multiple watchtowers surrounding the central courtyard.
The Kingdom of Pontus constructed this fortress on the Black Sea coast to function as a strategic watchtower during their regional control period.
The wooden Kademoğlu Mansion, built within the inner castle during the 18th century, displays traditional Ottoman architectural elements with two large bay windows.
The castle and mansion, restored in 2009, now operate as an ethnographic museum and restaurant, offering regional cuisine under the name Haznedaroğlu Mansion.
Inside the castle grounds, visitors can explore a basilica-shaped chapel that integrates with the defensive architecture of this coastal fortification.
