History of Elazığ

The history of Elazığ dates back to very old times. The fate of the city, which was rumored to have been founded in 3000 BC, has changed as a result of the Battle of Manzikert. Elazığ has hosted many civilizations. Anatolian principalities and Mongols are the leading ones. After the Battle of Çaldıran in 1516, the Ottoman Empire took Elazığ to control.

The name of Elazığ, which has been a Turkish country for many years, was given by Atatürk in 1937 as El’azık, which means granary, and abundance. It changed to Elazığ in time.
