The hamlets of Akkuş, Bekçili, Kemerli, Subaşı and Yukarımahalle are attached to the village.[1]

In 2019, the building of a külliye in the village in honour of a local policeman killed in action was started, but shortly after it was abandoned as the construction company wasn't paid. In June 2021, the construction was re-started by the Municipality of Elazığ.[4] The building was finished in October 2021.[5]
