List of earthquakes in Turkey
Turkey has had many earthquakes. This list includes any notable historical earthquakes that have epicenters within the current boundaries of Turkey, or which caused significant effects in this area. Overall, the population in major cities like Istanbul resides in structures that are a mix of vulnerable and earthquake resistant construction.

Turkey is a seismically active area within the complex zone of
Seismic hazard
Seismic hazard in Turkey is highest along the plate boundaries, but there is a significant risk of damaging earthquakes almost anywhere in the country. Seismic maps that show risk have changed through time.[1]
Buildings
In earthquake-prone areas, all buildings built to 20th century standards may be dangerous,
Further resilience over the 2007 code was mandated in the 2018 Turkish Seismic Code, which took effect on 1 January 2019.[6][10] Improvements included design supervision and site specific hazard definitions,[11] and for new buildings in vulnerable regions required rebar in high quality concrete.[12] Beams and columns in those buildings must be in the right place to properly absorb shaking.[12] The code is said by foreign experts to be very modern and similar to US codes.[13] However, these 21st century building codes were not very well enforced.[2]
