Sarıoğlan

There is no definite information about the establishment of Sarıoğlan District. It is said to be an old settlement. It was a small settlement in Pınarbaşı district during the Ottoman Empire. After Bünyan became a district, it was connected to Bünyan district. Palas and Karaözü towns of the district are older settlements. The Great Mosque, located in the town of Palas, was built in 1200. During the Republican period, 200 families of Balkan immigrants were settled in Sarıoğlan district and they mingled with the local people. The settlement, which was previously a sub-district of the Bünyan district, turned into a town municipality on 13 November 1953. With the law on the Administrative Systems Change of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey on April 1, 1960, it took the form of a district in terms of administration. With the 2012 Metropolitan Law, it was taken to the borders of Kayseri Metropolitan Municipality.
