Kocabey Köyü (Tepe Mah.)

In Eşme, weddings, holidays and seasonal festivals continue the heritage of Uşak. Crafts, dress and folk dance vary by neighborhood.

Courtyards, coffeehouses and markets are social hubs. Younger generations discover music and crafts through cultural centers and festivals.

Eşme developed as settlement, trade route and farmland in the historical geography of Uşak. Mounds and stone houses may bear traces of earlier periods.

Republic-era centralization of services shaped modern Eşme. Local archives and oral history illuminate this process.
