History

Çubuk is a settlement that was established when the Turks conquered and took control of Anatolia. The district is located in the northeast of Ankara. Çubuk gained historical importance when Bayezid I used Çubuk in the Battle of Ankara which was fought between Timur and the Ottoman Empire. Most of the villages that make up the district were formed by the remnants of armies defeated or left behind after the major battle.

Çubuk is in an area that has been crossed by trade routes since the Middle Ages. Many settlements were founded in this region because of the agricultural areas and the Çubuk River. The settlement is thought to have been founded after the conquest of Ankara and was under the control of many civilizations, for example the Hattians, Hittites, Phrygians, Romans, Byzantines, Seljuks, Timurids and Ottomans. This is why the remains of these empires can be found in the district. Ruins in the Balıkhisar Neighborhood, castle ruins in Camili and Çatkoy, a marble lion sculpture in the Güldarpı neighborhood and remains of graves in the Yakup Derviş neighborhood are among the remains of these empires. Also, the Sultan Siyemi Tomb, Kutoren Village Mosque, Melikshah Village Stone Bath, Mahmutoglan Village Mosque, and Cubuk Karsiyaka Mosque are among the historical monuments located in Çubuk.
