The Dardanelles Front is one of the bloodiest fronts of World War I. Soldiers injured at the front and civilians injured as a result of bombardments in settlements were treated in hospitals through a health network that spread from the battlefield to many corners of the country.
Although the aim was to protect the health facilities behind the front by raising the Red Crescent flag during the battles, Çanakkale was the scene of events contrary to the laws of war. Despite all the difficulties, the devoted officers of the Red Crescent Society stood by the epic army on the front. Alçıtepe Hilal-i Ahmer Hospital Reenactment Site and Çanakkale Battles Sanitary Museum aim to explain the painful side of the war to its visitors in the most realistic way.
