Çimenlik Kalesi, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu’nun yükselme döneminde ilk padişah olan Fatih Sultan Mehmet (II. Mehmet-1451-1481) tarafından yaptırılmıştır. Çanakkale boğazından İstanbul’a gelebilecek savaş gemilerini engellemek amacı ile inşa edilmiştir. Çanakkale boğazının en dar yerinde, Gelibolu yarım adasındaki Kilitbahir Kalesi ile karşılıklı olarak planlanmıştır. Çalışmanın amacı, Kale’nin kent dokusu bütününde tarihi peyzaj elemanı olarak irdelenmesidir. Bu doğrultuda kale ve park alanı, mekânsal, işlevsel ve estetik açıdan analiz edilerek öneriler getirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda kale ve park alanının kentsel gelişimden kopuk olduğu, yoğun olarak turizme yönelik kullanıldığı ve park alanının bitkisel tasarım, bitki türü ve niteliği açısından yetersiz olduğu belirlenmiştir.
Çanakkale Province has a historical importance from the ancient period to the present day. Thus, the urban area bears the traces of different civilizations and historical events. It was established on both sides of the Bosphorus, which separates the continents of Europe and Asia and carries its name. It has a geography that admires the world. Çimenlik Castle was built by Fatih Sultan Mehmet (II. Mehmet-1451-1481), the first sultan during the rise of the Ottoman Empire. It was built to prevent warships that can come to Istanbul from the Dardanelles. It was planned mutually with the Kilitbahir Castle on the Gelibolu peninsula, in the narrowest part of the Dardanelles. Çimenlik Castle played a very important role in the First World War (1914-1918). The development of the city has been formed around the castle since these periods. Today, the Çimenlik Castle, which is evaluated within the scope of the historical site and located in the city center, is managed by the Çanakkale Bosphorus and Garrison Command and has been opened for tourism-recreation. The aim of the study is to examine Kale as a historical landscape element in the whole urban texture. Accordingly, suggestions were made by analyzing the castle and park area in terms of spatial, functional and aesthetic aspects. As a result of the study, it has been determined that the castle and park area is disconnected from urban development, it is used intensively for tourism, and the park area is insufficient in terms of plant design, plant type and quality.
