Determining the seismic performance of traditional historical Diyarbakır houses and after that strengthening and restoration works without disturbing the historical and architectural texture are the important studies that will enable these buildings to be used today and transferred to future generations. In this study, the performance of a building in Sur district of Diyarbakır, which is registered as immovable cultural property which is required to be protected, under static and earthquake loads effect is investigated. SAP2000 structural analysis program was used for mathematical modeling of the structure, static analysis and determination of seismic performance.
