Ishak Pasha Palace is a unique Palace that dates back to the Ottoman period, the construction of which was started in 1685 by the Bey of Beyazıt, Colak Abdi Pasha. Ishak Pasha Palace is not a palace but a work resembling a complex. It served as the second administrative campus of the Ottoman Empire after the Topkapi Palace in Istanbul and became the most famous of the palaces built in recent years.
The construction was continued by Ishak Pasha, who was the descendant of Abdi Pasha, who would give its name to the Palace, which was built by a hereditary family of Pasha from the Cıldırogulları family of the Jaqeli dynasty. He became Cildir Pasha between 1790-1791. The Palace is weakly defended against the eastern hills, as it was built in an era when forts were no longer private, firearms were developed, and were in abundance. The main gate is its weakest point in this respect. The structure of the main entrance has neat stonework and carving, not unlike those seen in palaces built in Istanbul and elsewhere in Anatolia.
