Türk ve İslam Eserleri Müzesi Selsebili

Story

The cascade fountain of the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts, the jewel of Fatih, is a work of art reflecting the fine craftsmanship of Ottoman architecture. Housed in the İbrahim Pasha Palace, this museum displays treasures of Islamic art ranging from the 13th century to the present. Adorned with clear glass and marble details, the cascade fountain (selsebil) is a traditional example of the public water services of the Ottoman period. The Seljuk ceramics, Ottoman painted decoration, and luxurious handcrafts in the museum's collection are gems that demonstrate the richness of Islamic art. For this reason, having given visitors coolness and peace of soul throughout history, it is recommended that you come and sit beside the cascade fountain in the museum garden, feeling the historic fabric as you journey into the world of art.
