Kağızman, District capital in Eastern Anatolia, Turkey
Kağızman stands at the geographical coordinates of 40°09′30″N and 43°08′03″E, within the mountainous terrain of the Kars Province in Eastern Turkey.
The region functioned as an administrative center of the Kagizman Okrug under Russian control from 1878 until 1918, when it was returned to Turkish jurisdiction.
The municipality incorporates multiple linguistic influences, with its name appearing in Kurdish as Qaxizman, Armenian as Կաղզուան, and Russian as Кагызман.
The district capital maintains a population of 21,130 residents as of 2022, operating under the Turkish time zone UTC+3 with the postal code 36700.
The district holds an unexpected connection to American music, as folk singer Bob Dylan's paternal grandmother originated from this Turkish settlement.
