111 years ago (1913) the first national private bank of the Ottoman Empire was established, ADAPAZARI ISLAMIC TRADE BANK (TURKISH TRADE BANK) they were the real 13 brave men!
Today, 111 years later, the MUSEUM was opened in Adapazarı, in the building where the bank was first established. I am indescribably happy. What can I say, may all of them rest in peace, especially my grandfather and the founder Hacı Adem İbrahim Beyzade, who was the chairman of the board of directors for ten years.
Endless thanks to all those who contributed, especially our Mayor of Adapazarı, Mr. Mutlu.
