Interesting facts about this location
Pergamon Bridge
The Pergamon Bridge is a Roman substruction bridge over the Selinus river (modern Bergama Çayı) in the ancient city of Pergamon, modern-day Turkey. The 196 m wide structure, the largest of its kind in antiquity, was designed during Hadrian's reign (AD 117–138) in order to form a passageway underneath a large court in front of the monumental "Red Basilica" temple complex. The two intact tubes, which consist of supporting walls covered with barrel vaults, still serve their purpose to this day.

Bergama Raid
The Greek army landed in May 1919 in Smyrna and was continuing to occupy the area around Smyrna. When the Turks heard that the Greek troops had reached Reşadiye (Zeytindağ) on 10 June 1919, they realized that Bergama was next. Therefore they blow up the ammunition depot in Bergama to prevent the capture of the depot by Greek forces.
