Arapgir

Arapgir (Armenian: Արաբկիր; Kurdish: Erebgir) is a municipality and district of Malatya Province, Turkey. Its area is 987 km, and its population is 9,964 (2022).

It is situated at the confluence of the eastern and western Euphrates, but some miles from the right bank of the combined streams.

The present town was built in the mid-19th century, but about 2 miles north-east is the old town, now called Eskişehir ("old city" in Turkish).
