Rákóczi House, or Rákóczi Museum, is a historic house and museum located in the city of Tekirdağ in northwestern Turkey. It was built in the 18th century AD during the Ottoman era, in honor of the Hungarian national hero, Francis II Rákóczi, who lived in this house when he was an exile in the last years of his life between 1720 and 1735. The house was converted in 1982 into a museum, and today it is a tourist destination for the Hungarians.
