Sarmadzhiev House, Neo-baroque monument in Sredets District, Sofia, Bulgaria

The Sarmadzhiev House stands at the intersection of Tsar Osvoboditel Boulevard and Krakra Street, featuring a two-story structure with Mediterranean Renaissance elements.

Built in 1903 by architect Friedrich Grünanger for lawyer Haralampi Sarmadzhiev, the building became the property of the Ottoman Empire in 1916.

The residence contains an office museum dedicated to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who served as military attaché in Sofia from 1913 to 1915.

The building currently functions as the residence of the Turkish ambassador to Bulgaria and maintains its status as a cultural monument of national importance.

Friedrich Grünanger replicated the architectural design of this house when creating Villa Hedwig in Salzburg ten years after completing this project.
