Throughout history, the human have been exposed to many natural disasters, and the most dangerous and strongest of these have been the earthquakes. It has been known that there have been earthquakes of all sizes in Anatolia at different times since almost all regions of Anatolia are located on the seismic belt. Hence, many cities in this geography could not avoid being destroyed. This has been confirmed by archaelogical excavations and investigations. As is known, earthquakes are natural events which occur as a result of sudden discharge of energy accumulated on the faults in crust. In addition to the well-known fact that Eastern Anatolia Region has been an earthquake-prone region throughout history, it has been seen that Erzurum has shared the same fate. In this study, the earthquakes happened in Erzurum in the 19th century and their results will be dealt with in the light of archival records, relevant sources, and newspaper reports
