Fişekhane

The three-storey building made of reddish pink andesite also called “Ankara stone” was transformed into a Fişekhane (cartridge /ammunition storage depot) in 1907. During the War of Independence and the period of national struggle, from 1921 to 1925, it has been used as a cartridge factory. Over the course of the war of independence, it produced 50,000 bullets per day, repaired countless arms and played a crucial role in winning the war.
