Özet:
Traditional houses that built at different cities of Anatolia, reflect many diversities according to
the culture, climate and geography of the region which they built at. The history of the Eğirdir
District which located at Turkey’s Mediterranean Region, around the Lake Lands area, as a
district of Isparta City, roots back to the Hellenistic Period. For this reason, there are diverse
heritage buildings and archaeological remains at the district which can be dated from Hellenistic
Period to early times of the Republic Period of the Turkey. Architectural heritages such as
Traditional houses, mosques, churches, baths and other buildings with various functions, all
together formed the urban texture of the district. However the homogeneous historical structure
of urban texture has been degenerated by the land reclamation fillings that built with the
development plan, crossing roads and new / high-raised buildings. The traditional houses were
concentrated at specific streets. The houses that built between the end of 19.th and the beginning
of the 20.th centuries are mostly abandoned and as a result of these actions, they are facing the
risk of the disappearance. To ensure the continuity of the cultural heritage, it is crucial to
preserving and keeping alive, the houses which reflect the society’s socio-cultural life and
architectural culture by conserving them. There is an urgent need to conservation projects and
their implementation to prevent the disappearance of these important heritages. Documentation
is a prerequisite for conservation projects. In this study, with the aim of preparing a base to
Conservation of the Traditional Eğirdir Houses, as part of architectural documentation studies,
typological analysis of locations, plan drawings, construction systems, usage of the materials and
façades have been conducted.
