As a result of many excavations, it was figured out that long established history of this magnificent underground city is based on the Rome (Byzantine) Era.
Within those times, the city experienced many events like the Crusades and Arab Invasions which were the very important wars made for religion. Therefore, the peasants built many underground cities around the districts of Cappadocia to protect themselves against the war, attacks and persecution. They established the fascinating Saratlı Underground City as a defence. Those genius locals created a perfect mechanism and a unique handicraft, when they built it by adding secret tunnels connected with each other and ventilation system. Today, this place accompanied by influx of tourists has opened for the visitors after the renovations and excavations in 1950’s.
