The "Meram City and Life Culture Museum", which was brought to the district by Meram Municipality in order to keep the culture of Meram and Konya alive and pass it on to future generations, is counting the days for its opening. Meram Mayor Mustafa Kavuş said that the museum, which will have many things about Konya and Meram, will be one of the most important parts of the district’s tourism destination.
Meram Mayor Mustafa Kavuş pointed out that “the work carried out with the aim of keeping Konya and Meram life culture alive and transferring it to new generations has deep meaning with all its features. We are coming to the end of our museum, which includes two traditional Konya houses located opposite each other in the same courtyard on Dutlu Street and the vineyard land behind them. We will take our people on a historical journey in the museum, which is one of the most important parts of our history, culture, nature and travel route we created in Meram. We will tell the history and culture of Meram with ethnographic materials and animations, and we will ensure that our visitors, especially the new generation, can learn and even experience our culture.”
MAYOR KAVUŞ: “THERE WILL BE ALMOST EVERYTHING ABOUT KONYA AND MERAM IN THE MUSEUM”
Mayor Mustafa Kavuş stated that “the most beautiful examples of stonemasonry are located here. Visitors will also be able to experience some events and dishes. Items belonging to Konya and Meram will be exhibited, and some items will be sold in the souvenir section. Our guests will be greeted by lifeless mannequins consisting of children, groom and bride. Everything belonging to Konya will be in the museum, such as the living room, bride and groom rooms, kitchen, barn, tandoor, vineyard and orchard. Henna, cetnavir and wedding ceremonies will be exhibited theatrically and explained to visitors. I hope it will bring good luck to our city and Meram.
