Abstract:

Fountains, which constitute an important building group of water architecture, found a place in the Ottoman urban phenomenon by reflecting the style and characteristics of the period they belong to. Fountain structures have become a very common architectural element in neighborhoods due to many factors such as the Muslim people's view of having a fountain built as a blessing, and the importance attached to water by Ottoman subjects and the vital value of water. These structures, which are shaped by the architecture of the period, also shape the urban texture in which it is located. Fountain structures, which usually deal with their architectural features, raise some questions about their contribution to the urban fabric.
