It is very significant to protect and hand down cultural heritage to next generations. To be able to accomplish this mission, digital documentation of the cultural heritage should be prepaed. Thus, the project design for the restoration of the damaged cultural heritage will be realistic. In this study, digital documentation steps of the cultural heritage were discussed in detail using the Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS). Zonguldak Uzun Mehmet Monument was used as a test object. Totally, 13 scans were acquired in the field. After the registration and elimination of points with gross error, the 3D surface mesh was generated. Various applications were carried out using the 3D surface mesh. For example, CAD drawings were created to be used in various projects and the approximate to 1/100 scale model of the monument was printed using a 3D printer.
