Also known as the Yusuf Şucaeddin Mosque Fountain, this Ottoman-period fountain stands in the Ayvansaray quarter of Fatih. After the 1980s Golden Horn coastal road works it remained within the garden of the Yusuf Şucaeddin Mosque. Built of cut limestone in a hexagonal form, it has a large reservoir and a spout on each of its four faces; it is clad in lead, and today water flows from only one of its spouts.
