Istanbul Preserves its Past: Historic Gravestones Documented in New Cultural Project
The Turkish Ministry of Culture and Tourism is currently undertaking a historical preservation project in Istanbul, focusing on the city's ancient gravestones. As part of this ongoing initiative, historians and cultural workers are carefully documenting the history engraved on these stones and adding them to a formal inventory. The project aims to catalog and protect the rich, tangible heritage found within the city's historical cemeteries.
