The Greek Church that is located at the city center of Adana and dated to 1845, has been used as an ‘ethnography museum’ since 1960’s. The traditional residential building in the courtyard of the building complex has functioned as ‘Adana Directorate of Surveying and Monuments. The Project aims the increase the consciousness of such a building type, Greek Church, that rarely extents in Adana and nearby.

 

Within the scope of the study, restoration of the church with respect to its original state and arrangement and conservation of the traditional building where ethnographical objects are exhibited is suggested.
