About Gumushane

In the city of Gümüşhane, where Black Sea culture meets Greek culture, Keçi Castle and Torul Castle are very important. These regions are visited from a touristic perspective.

Gümüşhane, a city built on the mountain slopes, is one of the oldest monuments with its Hagios Georgios Monastery and is known to have been built by Trabzon prince Alexios Komnenos. Gümüşhane used to be a province of Trabzon and later became a province.

The region has been among the regions with a dense Greek population since ancient times, and during the population exchange, the Greeks in the region were sent and Turks were settled in the region.

This is the biggest problem for tourists in Gumushane, where the roads are bad and it is criticized a lot because it causes a difficult journey. Karaca cave is said to be the oldest cave in the world and it is known that the first people lived in this region 137 million years ago.

Although there are many different sightseeing areas in Gümüşhane, which has many protected areas, the places that can be visited visually are quite difficult to reach.
