This “Museum Village”, which is 11 km away from Safranbolu, can be reached via the Safranbolu-Araç highway. It was taken under protection by the Ministry of Culture in 1997 due to the fact that it was a real Turkish-Turkmen Village and the splendor of its historical structures. It is a small model of Safranbolu. There are 93 registered works.

Nomadic communities living in the Safranbolu region in the 16th century are called "Yörükan-Taraklı" or "Yörükan-ı Taraklıborlu". During the Ottoman Empire, Safranbolu was two separate townships, one named Medina-i Taraklıborlu in today's Safranbolu district center, and the other named Yörükan-ı Taraklıborlu, which was established for the tribes whose center is today's Yörük Village. It is known that both districts are connected to the Bolu Sanjak of Anadolu Beylerbey, whose center is Kütahya.

In the written legends about the Yörük village, it is stated that the nomads were nomadic in the 14th and 15th centuries, they were attached to a kadi in a way that would constitute a separate career with their unique tax system, and they were settled in time, and that today's Yörük village was determined as the center of this district and they continued their position for a long time. According to the legend that the village elders heard from their ancestors; Depending on the Karakeçili tribe of the Kayı tribe, which was the beginning of the Ottoman Empire, 3 brothers came here with their large families and animals to the Taraklı Borlu region of Safranbolu. Their names are Hussein, Haji and Davut. While this large camp was settling, the elder brother Hüseyin founded this Yörük Village. Others founded the “Hacılar Obası and the “Plain of David”, which also bear their own names.

Especially in the second half of the 19th century. It is known that during the reign of Abdülhamit, members of the Karakeçili tribe were present in the guard unit of Yıldız Palace, and even the outer buildings and gardens of the palace were left to the protection of Albanian and Bosnian origin guards, while the night and internal security of the building where the Sultan slept was entrusted to the members of the Karakeçili tribe. It is understood from the examination of the tombstones in the village that the Bektashism worldview affected some families in the Yörük Village for a while due to these military services, but this effect disappeared at the beginning of the 19th century.

Unlike Safranbolu, the nomads, who did not have land and rough terrain problems, built their houses almost adjacent to each other. They are built along the main street instead of the cluster of houses that are usually seen in Anatolian villages. All of the houses have their own gardens. A rural art of living dominates the city-sized houses of Yörük. A settlement outside the known village house style, filled with the best examples of the Ottoman period classical style of home architecture, almost all of them have the quality of mansions.
