Çermik, District in Diyarbakır Province, Turkey

Located in southeastern Turkey, Çermik spans 948 square kilometers with a Mediterranean climate, featuring hot summers and cool winters throughout the district.

Prior to World War I, Çermik maintained five churches, one monastery, and five schools, serving a population of 12,418 Armenian residents in the region.

Multiple ethnic groups in Çermik practice traditional crafts, share regional cuisine, and participate in local music events that reflect Turkish and Kurdish influences.

Transportation to Çermik requires planning, as visitors need to access the district through major road networks connecting to other urban centers in Turkey.

A synagogue dating from 1416 stands in Çermik as a testament to the former Jewish community that resided there until their departure in 1948.
