Located in Tokat city center, Devegörmez District, Devegörmez Street, this house originally belonged to Captain Mustafa Vasfi SÜSOY, one of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's comrades in arms. Mustafa Vasfi SÜSOY (1876-1934); A soldier who served as a Staff Officer of Atatürk during the Çanakkale and War of Independence, his comrade in arms on the Bandırma Ferry, and a Tokat Member of Parliament for four terms with the Republic, he was always close to Atatürk and supported his works and ideas. This mansion was expropriated on December 28, 2001 and allocated to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism on October 7, 2003, after its restoration and exhibition arrangement was made, it was opened to visitors on June 26, 2007 under the name of "Tokat Atatürk House and Ethnography Museum".

The house, known to have been built in the second half of the 19th century, has a mezzanine floor and two floors above the entrance. The house was built in a two-sided plan type with an inner sofa, which can turn into two separate houses, one facing the street and the other one facing the garden, by being separated from each other by the double-wing doors of the sofas located on the ground floor and the first floor.

Atatürk visited Tokat six times during the years of the National Struggle and the Republic, and stayed in this house belonging to Mustafa Vasfi SÜSOY on three of his visits. On his second visit, Atatürk and Latife Hanım were also accompanied and they stayed in this house for two nights.

After the death of the owner of the house, Mustafa Vasfi SÜSOY in 1934, the belongings used in this house where Atatürk had stayed during his arrival in Tokat were collected and preserved in a room of the house. After the house was converted into a museum by our the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, items known to have been personally used by Atatürk were placed in their original places at that time. The other parts of the house were arranged with the items that could be found in a Tokat house at the end of the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century, and this place was transformed into a living house.

The room opened to the entrance hall, which is known to have been gifted to the owner of the house by Atatürk and which he used when he stayed in this house when he came to Tokat, was arranged as the room in which Atatürk drank coffee. On the sofa of the first floor facing the garden, there is the table where Atatürk ate while he was in this house. A room opening to the same sofa is named “Atatürk's Bedroom” and contains the bed that Atatürk used when he stayed in this house. Also; photographs taken in different parts of the city during Atatürk's visits to Tokat are being exhibited on the walls of the house.

Located in the city center of Tokat, this house is important for Tokat as it is the only place Atatürk stayed during his visits to Tokat.
