Azmi Milli

Turkey's first electrically operated flour mill. An interesting place full of history Thank you to the friends in charge there. It gives information about both Azmi Milli and Aksaray.

I've been living in Aksaray for many years, but I've never wondered before. The equipment still remains inside the building, the labor still smells of perseverance. Bless the hands and hearts of everyone who organized it and brought it into what it is today.

Azmi Milli Flour Factory was established in 1924 at the request of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk made a speech at the Turkish Grand National Assembly in the 1920s; In his speech, he tells us that the army is out of war and that the country needs flour. Vehbi Çorakçı, a member of parliament from Aksaray, said that a flour factory would be beneficial to the army and the nation. Then, Ataturk, "Do you have a request," asks Vehbi Bey. Vehbi Bey says P Pasham,, Aks We want Aksaray to be a province and a flour factory to be established ’. Atatürk instructs Aksaray to be a province and to establish a flour factory in Aksaray. Under the leadership of Vehbi Bey, a company is established in Aksaray with a capital of 250 thousand pounds and the name “Azmi Milli gelen, which means the determination of the nation, is given. Another feature of the factory is that it is the first factory that produces its own energy. The power plant established in the Mamasun Dam produces its own electricity and excess energy is used in the lighting of Aksaray. The Azmi National Flour Factory meets the flour needs of the country and the army for a long time. Then additions are made, factories are built next to them and cooling units are created. It continues its production until 1996 and goes down in history as one of our most important industrial facilities. The factory was transferred to Aksaray Municipality within the scope of Privatization Administration in 2000s. Converted into a museum in Turkey, Eskisehir, Bursa, Istanbul Despite the fact that many factories "Azmi National Museum of Science and Industry" is the most important feature of working order. The Union of Historic Cities recognized this achievement by giving the mi Continuity Award ’to the Azmi National Industry and Science Museum Project. Azmi has an important place in Turkey's industrialization and Aksaray National Flour Factory arts and culture today, especially displays the history of the industry.

It's an old factory. It is now a museum, but it is still under renovation, we could not visit it completely. Unfortunately, even though we parked in the museum parking lot for a very short time, the parking fee was charged. I still haven't figured out why this was done, interesting.

What impresses me the most is that it can still work, it has a great archive, a beautiful architecture and an impressive history. Those who go to Aksaray should definitely visit it.

Azmi National Flour Factory is an indication of the importance of the newly announced Republic in Aksaray. Republican People's Party Aksaray Deputy Vehbi (Çorakçı) was founded with the efforts of the brain. In 2000, production was terminated within the scope of privatization. In the 57th government period, by the efforts of ANAP Provincial Chairman Orhan Aydın and the Mayor of Aksaray Municipality Osman Ertuğrul, the ownership of the property was transferred to Aksaray Municipality by the appreciation of State Minister Yüksel Yalova. Aksaray Old Mayor Nevzat Palta period, the new factory building was destroyed, the museum was made in the historical building. Haluk Şahin made an underground car park at Yazgı. The museum staff were courteous and concerned.

The old Azmi National Flour Factory was reorganized and opened as the Azmi National Industry and Technology Museum.

The factory also stands out with its feature of being the first factory that works with electricity. A hydroelectric power plant is being built in Aksaray powerinkaya location and the electricity is met with the electricity produced. I would very much like to turn the power plant into a museum. Azmi Milli Flour Factory is the sign of the importance given to Aksaray by the newly declared Republic. The Republican People's Party was established with the efforts of Aksaray Deputy Vehbi (Çorakçı) Bey. In 2000, it was included in the scope of privatization and production was terminated. During the 57th Government, with the efforts of ANAP Provincial President Orhan Aydın and the Aksaray Mayor of the time Osman Ertuğrul, its ownership passed to the Aksaray Municipality with the appreciation of the Minister of State, Yüksel Yalova. During the period of Aksaray Former Mayor Nevzat Palta, the new factory building was demolished and a museum was built in the historical building. Haluk Şahin built the underground car park in Yazgı.
