The Haseki Sultan Complex (also Hürrem Sultan Complex) (Шаблон:Lang-tr) is a 16th-century Ottoman imperial mosque complex in the Fatih district of Istanbul, Turkey. It was the first royal project designed by the chief imperial architect Mimar Sinan.
History
The mosque complex was commissioned by Haseki Hürrem Sultan, the wife of the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. She had married the sultan around 1534 and probably used her dowry to finance the project.Шаблон:Sfn The buildings were designed by the architect Mimar Sinan. It was his first imperial project and it is possible that some elements were planned by his predecessor.Шаблон:Sfn
The complex contained a Friday mosque, a soup-kitchen (imaret), a madrasa, an elementary school (mektep) and a hospital (darüssifa).Шаблон:Sfn The large complex was built in several stages on either side of a narrow street. The mosque was completed in 1538–39 (AH 945), the madrasa was completed a year later in 1539–40 (AH 946) and the soup-kitchen in 1540–41 (AH 947). The hospital was not completed until 1550–51 (AH 957).Шаблон:Sfn
Description
The simple mosque is constructed with alternating courses of stone and brick and has a single-galleried minaret. The portico has five arches with five small domes supported by six thin marble columns. Originally the prayer-hall was covered by a single dome with a diameter of 11.3 meters.Шаблон:Sfn In 1612–13, during the reign of Ahmed I, the mosque was enlarged to accommodate an increased congregation. A second dome was added and the prayer hall was doubled in size.Шаблон:Sfn The painted decorations on the dome are not original. Unlike the madrasa and the soup-kitchen, the mosque lacks any cuerda seca tile-work.Шаблон:Sfn
The hospital has an octagonal courtyard and is the only building in the complex with an ashlar construction.Шаблон:Sfn The carved stone inscription over the entrance from the street is a chronogram in Turkish giving the date of construction.Шаблон:Sfn The madrasa is U-shaped around a central courtyard with 16 small cells and a lecture hall.Шаблон:Sfn The soup-kitchen is also arranged around a courtyard. The cooking area at the northern end has four octagonal chimneys.Шаблон:Sfn A surviving account book shows that there were originally tiled lunette panels above six of the windows.Шаблон:Sfn
The complex was restored in 2010–2012.Шаблон:Sfn
