Edirne Beylerbeyi Bath

It is located at the beginning of Saraçhane Bridge. It was built by Yusuf Sinaneddin Pasha, the Beylerbeyi of Rumelia, in H. 832 / M. 1429 together with the mosque and imaret. Until the early 19th century, the bathhouse continued its activities and was abandoned after the Balkan War. Its dressing rooms have completely disappeared and have become ruins. The 15th century architecture is characterized by the use of cut stones between two and three rows of beams on the façade, giving the walls a colorful appearance. The vertically placed bricks seen in other buildings are different here with two bricks in each row. On the west façade, the entrance doors of the cold room with cut stone cladding are enclosed in a large niche with a chamfered edge and designed in the form of a Bursa arch. The north door of the cold room, which consists of a long rectangle covered by three small domes side by side in the middle and barrel vaults on both sides, leads to the corridor opening to the men's section from the north door and to the women's section from the right side. The women's section is very small and covered with a large central dome. A barrel vaulted iwan in the south direction joins the warmth with a large arch. Two doors on the north side open to the men's section coldness. The men's section temperature consists of a central volume covered by a large dome in the middle and four iwan schemes in the plan, which are covered with cross vaults on the four sides of it and joined to the central part with a large arch. The domed pavilion cells at the four corners complete the temperature plan.   The ashtray and the hot water cistern run along the entire northern edge.
