İzmir Governorship Building

The İzmir Governorship Building stands as a substantial administrative structure with its central position at the heart of Konak Square in İzmir.

The original construction of this provincial administrative center began in 1872, followed by reconstruction in the 1980s after a damaging fire in 1970.

The building represents Turkish administrative traditions through its role as the central point for provincial governance and public ceremonies during national celebrations.

The governorship manages provincial matters, directs local police forces, and provides essential administrative services to İzmir's population of over four million residents.

Between 2017 and 2021, the building underwent extensive renovations to incorporate modern facilities while maintaining its administrative functions and historical elements.
