Sülüklü Inn, Historical inn in Sur, Turkey

The Sülüklü Inn features thick stone walls, spacious courtyards, and a central well, following traditional Ottoman architectural principles for commercial buildings.

Built in 1683 by Hanilioglu Mahmut Celebi and his sister Atike Hatun, the inn served as a cavalry cantonment during the Turkish War of Independence.

The establishment functions as a meeting point where visitors and residents gather to drink Turkish coffee and share stories in a traditional setting.

Located at coordinates 37.91157, 40.23744, the inn operates daily from 7 AM to 9 PM, offering both cafe services and historical tours.

The inn derives its name from the medicinal leeches that were historically sourced from its central well for traditional healing practices.
