Hurrem Sultan (Roxelana) Hammam

The principal Ottoman architect, Mimar Sinan, created the Hurrem Sultan Hammam in Istanbul, the jewel of the world on the ancient Peninsula. In the sixteenth century, Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent’s wife, Hurrem Sultan (Roxelana), requested that it be constructed.

(1555–1557 AD) for Hurrem Sultan (Roxelana), situated between the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque, on the site of Zeuxippus’s (532) historic public baths. The hammam was the biggest that Mimar Sinan ever constructed, and it was constructed in the typical Ottoman bath style. The construction of the male and female parts on the same axis, mirroring one other, was a novel approach to Turkish architecture.
