Yeniköy (Greek: Νεοχώρι) is a village in the Sarıkamış District, Kars Province, Turkey.
Yeniköy was founded in 1878 by Pontic Greek Crypto-Christian settlers from Erzurum, Chaldia and Nicopolis shortly after the Kars Province was incorporated into the Russian Empire in the aftermath of the Russo-Turkish War (1877–1878).
[1][2] After founding the village its residents began practicing Orthodox Christianity openly once again, building a stone church in 1884.
[1] Greek refugees lived in camps in squalid conditions, suffering hunger and typhus.
The Greek government began organizing evacuations in May 1919,[5] and Yeniköy residents were eventually brought to Thessaloniki.
