Kırklareli Museum, Natural history museum in Kırklareli, Turkey.
The Kırklareli Museum is a two-story building with arched windows that houses collections of natural history, ethnography, and archaeology from the region. The exhibits include taxidermized animals, regional artifacts, and everyday objects from the past.
The building was constructed in 1894 as an administrative seat for a local governor and later served as a municipal office for decades. It was converted into a museum in 1993 after undergoing restoration.
The ethnography section shows traditional clothing and household items that reflect daily life in rural and urban areas from about 100 years ago. The objects help you understand how people dressed, worked, and furnished their homes during that period.
The museum is easy to navigate with exhibits arranged logically across both floors. You can see both levels in about one to two hours and get a good overview of the region's natural and cultural history.
The collection of taxidermized birds and mammals shows regional animal species, some of which are no longer found in the area today. These specimens offer a rare glimpse into wildlife that once roamed the region.
