Alucra, Municipal district in Giresun Province, Turkey

Located 130 kilometers from Giresun city, Alucra stands at an elevation of 1,524 meters in the Black Sea region of Turkey.

The settlement dates back to Hittite civilization and later became part of the Byzantine Empire before experiencing significant Turkish migration after 1054.

The July summer festival brings together local residents and visitors to participate in traditional activities and share regional customs.

The district maintains essential services including healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and regular transportation connections to major urban centers.

Local specialties include Fit Çorbası, a regional soup combining onions and bulgur wheat, and Oğlak Kebabı prepared with young goat meat.
