Gömürgen is a neighbourhood of the municipality and district of Akkışla, Kayseri Province, Turkey. Its population is 508 (2022). Before the 2013 reorganisation, it was a town (belde).
==History== Gömürgen lies in Anatolia, one of the earliest settled areas in the world. Exact data for the establishment of the village are not well known. It is believed that between 1594 and 1644 seven Turkmeni families emigrated from Central Asia to the area, and continue to live there as sheep breeders.
