Trabzon (deutsch historisch Trapezunt, griechisch Τραπεζούντα Trapezoúnda, altgriechisch Τραπεζοῦς Trapezús) ist eine Stadt im Nordosten der Türkei und deren östlichste große Hafenstadt am Schwarzen Meer. 2021 hatte die Großstadtkommune Trabzon insgesamt 816.684 Einwohner und das Stadtzentrum Ortahisar 334.228 Einwohner. Die Großstadtkommune ist flächenidentisch mit der gleichnamigen Provinz. Die Stadt ist ferner Umschlagplatz für den Export von im Umland angebauten Haselnüssen, Tee und Tabak. Der Antike Name der Stadt lautete „Τραπεζοῦς“ (Trapezús), aus dessen Akkusativ „Τραπεζούντα“ (Trapezúnta) der neugriechische Name „Τραπεζούντα“ (Trapezoúnda) gebildet wurde. Unter anderem leitet sich der Akkusativ „Τραπεζοῦντα“ auch von der geläufigen Lateinischen Bezeichnung Trapezuntum ab. Um das 7. Jahrhundert v. Chr. von griechischen Siedlern gegründet, ließ der römische Kaiser Hadrian Anfang des 2. Jahrhunderts einen künstlichen Hafen anlegen und die Stadt ausbauen. Die im Mittelalter und bis zum Ersten Weltkrieg geschäftige Handelsstation an der Seidenstraße gehörte von 1204 bis 1461 zum Kaiserreich Trapezunt, als die Dynastie der Komnenen herrschte. In dieser Zeit entstanden die byzantinische Kathedrale Hagia Sophia und fast alle weiteren, historisch bedeutenden Bauwerke. Die meisten Kirchen wurden in osmanischer Zeit in Moscheen umgewandelt.
