Divriği National Park
Divriği, Sivas
Türkiye's 50th national park, declared in 2024, covering the Divriği Ulu Mosque and the historic and natural area around it.
Its story
Divriği National Park was declared on 2 November 2024 and became Türkiye's 50th national park. Its area of about 5,049 hectares aims to protect together the district's historic monuments, above all the Divriği Ulu Mosque and Darüşşifa, and the surrounding natural landscape. Deep valleys cut by the tributaries of the Çaltı Çayı, rocky slopes and highland pastures form the natural character of the area. Treating cultural heritage and nature under the same protection status sets the park apart from other national parks. As visitor infrastructure may still be under development, get current information from DKMP.
