In Bozcaada, weddings, holidays and seasonal festivals continue the heritage of Çanakkale. Crafts, dress and folk dance vary by neighborhood.

Courtyards, coffeehouses and markets are social hubs. Younger generations discover music and crafts through cultural centers and festivals.

Bozcaada developed as settlement, trade route and farmland in the historical geography of Çanakkale. Mounds and stone houses may bear traces of earlier periods.

Republic-era centralization of services shaped modern Bozcaada. Local archives and oral history illuminate this process.
