摘要：

Büyükada Orphanage (also known as Prinkipo Palace or Büyükada Greek Orphanage) was designed and built in 1898 as a hotel building on one of the nine Islands in the Sea of Marmara (Istanbul, Turkey). When the permission to use it as a hotel could not issue, it was purchased by a benefactor and converted into an orphanage with necessary additions. The orphanage was opened as a subordinate of the Greek Patriarchate in 1903 until closed in 1964. The importance of the building is associated with being considered the largest wooden building in Europe with 50.000 m3 volume constitutes and the second largest in the world at the time of its construction. In order to illuminate the past and the future, identification of the wood samples used in various parts of the building was determined by microscopic methods. As a result of the examination of the samples taken from eight different areas, it was determined that two of the samples belonged to spruce, three to fir, and one for each sample to hard pine, oak and cedar trees. As a result of this study with wood identification, the preferences of this magnificent structure and indirectly the wooden-based structures of Istanbul’s late 19th century were clarified and a basis for the restoration works was formed.
