### **History**

The building was commissioned by the then-Mayor Mehmet [Adil](/en/detay/adil-4f812/llms.txt) [Bey](/en/detay/bey-5/llms.txt) and designed based on the [Paris](/en/detay/paris-4/llms.txt) City Hall. It was constructed by Armenian master builder Bögos as a single-story masonry structure with robust architectural features. Following the 1980 military coup, the municipality relocated to a new building, and the historic structure continued to serve different purposes. The building also preserves historical artifacts from Tekirdağ’s municipal history. A desk that once belonged to the first Mayor, [Hasan](/en/detay/hasan-2/llms.txt) Cemali [Baba](/en/detay/baba-2/llms.txt), is still displayed in the Municipal Assembly Hall today.

### **Architectural Features**

The Süleymanpaşa Historical Municipality Building is a single-story masonry structure with a ground floor. It [has](/en/detay/has-3/llms.txt) a hipped roof with wide eaves. The building features two main entrances located on its southern and western facades. In front of these doors stand four marble columns with intricately carved capitals.

The structure showcases impressive aesthetic details. The wooden entrance doors are adorned with intricate carvings. The staircase leading to the upper floor is designed in the Baroque style, and the ceilings feature decorative elements. On the second floor, between the columns, there are balconies with cast-iron railings. The corners of the first-floor hall also contain column capitals, demonstrating the building’s meticulous craftsmanship.

### **Current Use**

Today, the historic building houses the Private Secretariat Directorate of the Süleymanpaşa Municipality. Reflecting the city’s municipal heritage, this architectural and historical landmark remains one of Tekirdağ’s significant cultural assets.
