Heritage
Their house stood at the top, their bank just below it. Between the two they built a staircase — to make safer the walk their children took to school each morning. In Pera they kept a guest house, where their visitors were received. For close to a hundred years, the Camondo family's life in Istanbul was spread across this slope.
The house stayed, the bank stayed, the guest house stayed. The staircase stayed; for a century the children of the same school have come down the same steps.
1873
Abraham Salomon died in Paris in 1873, at ninety-three. His will asked for one thing: to be brought back to Istanbul. He was. He was buried at Hasköy, in the tomb he had built himself, in a state funeral accompanied by the palace band.
This story does not end with a departure. It closes with a return.
Istanbul
Both houses stand on the Galata slope, between the boulevard and the water. Leave the key at the desk and walk.
