Abstract: Amasia City has taken its rightful place in history as an important center from past to present. The fact that the Ottoman shahzadas were reigned here as sanjakbeys has made the city a center of attraction. Due to the fact that it is located on the caravan routes from Istanbul to the east, the importance of the city has more increased. In this context, from the past to the present, the Amasia region has become a center of migration. However, especially in the 19th century, intense migration from the Caucasus to the Amasia Sanjak is seen. A significant part of the migrations from the Caucasus has been happen from Azerbaijan region. At the present time, the people of Azerbaijan, known as Shirvans by the people of Amasya, have carried their culture with them to Amasya. In this article, emigration from Azerbaijani to Amasya, the life of Sheikh ?smail Siraceddin and Seyyid Mir Hamza Nigari and the architectural assets of the Azeris in the city of Amasia will be discussed and tried to be introduced.
