Some of these organizations proposed 2015 to be the European year of technical and industrial heritage and aim to increase awareness of this subject. Turkey's industrial heritage sites reflect a nationwide struggle that paralleled the modernization of the Republic; however, recent regeneration projects threaten what remains of this cultural history.
