history
In the immediate vicinity of the city there are evidence of the earliest settlement, which dates back to around 6,500 BC. The name of the city goes back to the Latin Praetoria and was first recorded in 1483.
In the 19th century capital of Burdur was Sanjak of Konya . In a major fire in 1884, around 150 houses were destroyed. It is estimated that more than 1,500 people were killed in a major earthquake on October 3, 1914. Two thirds of all houses were destroyed. From 1919 to 1921 Burdur was under Italian occupation. In 1923 there was another major fire in the traders' quarter, in which 250 shops were destroyed.
After the founding of the republic, Burdur became the capital of the newly formed province of the same name. According to the first census, Burdur had 12,848 inhabitants at that time. In 1936 Burdur was connected to the railway network. The population stagnated until 1955. In 1955 a sugar factory started production. This led to rapid population growth.
The Burdur Archaeological Museum presents the history of the region.
