Topkapi Palace were the primary Istanbul home of the Ottoman Sultans between 1465 and 1856. It was the location of royal events and is home to well-known Muslim relics. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985, it was largely unused by 1856 when most functions were moved out of the complex and was turned into a museum in 1924.
