Özet:

There are five districts of Uşak, Banaz, Sivaslı, Eşme, Ulubey and Karahallı, which are located on the threshold of Inner West Anatolia. Our study includes fountains in the Karahallı district in the south-east of Uşak city center from these districts. Fifteen villages connected to the Karahallı district were scanned and ten fountains were identified in four villages. In fountains with a single facade design, the mass is vertically rectangular. The facade composition forms sharp, semi-circular and sliced arches, bowl niches and plasterers. When evaluated in general, it is seen that some of the fountains which have a simple design without decoration have also used vegetative, figurative or object motifs. The fountains have undergone natural or user-induced local losses. The seventh of the Karahallı fountains are dysfunctional today. It is dated to the end of the 18th century and to the end of the 19th century, to the last period of the Ottoman period, according to the architectural features and architectural inscriptions. In the study, Karahallı fountains were tried to be introduced with their plan, architecture, decoration features and protection situations.
