Kagithane’s Rise to Fame

During Ottoman regime, the Sultans and their entourage used the forest land of Kağıthane for hunting. In later years, its reputation transformed into an industrial hub as many factories opened in the area including paper mills, hence its current name that when translated into Turkish means “paper house.”

However, during the 1950s, mass migration soon made it a slum town. Local officials embarked on an extensive project to legalize them and implement a residential atmosphere. Their success turned Kagithane into a desirable location for Istanbul residents, and in 1987, it got separated from the Şişli district to become a municipality on its own.
