Our distinguished faculty member Prof. Doğan Kuban, who carried out important works in the field of architecture and architectural history in Turkey and in the international arena, passed away in 2021 at the age of 95.

On April 8, the birthday of our esteemed faculty member Prof. Doğan Kuban, a commemorative meeting was organized by his colleagues, friends and students. Those who witnessed firsthand Prof. Doğan Kuban’s significant contributions to the world of science and the importance of his work in academic fields such as architecture, architectural history and the preservation of the historical environment, and faculty members whose paths crossed with Kuban throughout his academic career told about our professor. This meeting became the source for the “Prof. Doğan Kuban” file in the September issue of Toplumsal Tarih magazine.
