Küçük Kilese

Central Anatolia


On the hill to the north of Sille stands the tiny Küçük Kilese. The chapel has been fully renovated and is now home to the Zaman Müzesi (Time Museum) with a small collection of time-keeping implements from across history. The collection itself isn't particularly inspiring but the view over the village from the terrace is worth the walk up the hill.
