Savur

Savur is one of Mardin’s quieter historic district destinations, known for its stone houses spread across the mountain slopes, historic mansions, old religious buildings and rural valley landscapes. Traditional stonework is clearly visible in the town’s silhouette rising along the hillside. The area around Savur Castle, its rock houses and nearby settlements such as Dereiçi offer a cultural experience that is different from, yet complementary to, historic central Mardin.
