Summary/Abstract: Concepts such as symbols, heroes, rituals, and social values are forms of expression that exist in the unwritten culture of societies. Societies have used some symbols for the rehabilitation of disasters such as war, massacre and genocide. The Turkish Cypriots of Northern Cyprus also benefited from these symbols to overcome the trauma they experienced after the conflicts with the Greeks and the terrorist acts they were exposed to by the Greeks. In this study, museums, monuments and monuments established to raise the national consciousness and morale of the Turkish Cypriots, to be proud of themselves and their struggle against the Greeks, and to respect the memories of their martyrs were examined.
