Story
Among the historic streets of Antakya, the fountain in the courtyard of the Habib-i Neccar Mosque carries the traces of Islam's first period of expansion. Habib-i Neccar was one of the first martyrs mentioned in the Qur'an, killed for having become a Muslim. This beautiful fountain, designed at the center of the mosque courtyard, deeply impresses visitors with a structure that symbolizes serenity through the cool waters of Antakya. Its oval basin adorned with white marble reflects the elegance of traditional Islamic architecture. In addition to Habib-i Neccar's historical significance, within Antakya's multi-faith civilization this fountain stands as magnificent proof of centuries in which different faiths lived side by side. During your visit to Antakya, you can take time in the late afternoon hours to sit around the fountain and reflect on the city's dazzling panorama and its deep history.
