About the Kılıç Ali Pasha Complex
The Kılıç Ali Pasha Complex is in Tophane, a neighborhood of the Beyoğlu district of Istanbul. Its patron was the Grand Admiral (Kapudan-i Derya) Kılıç Ali Pasha. He was told to put it beside the sea because of his rank as admiral. Five elements make up the complex: mosque, medrese, hamam, tomb (türbe) and fountain.
Mimar Sinan, in his 90s at the time, designed and built the complex between 1580 and 1587, though the medrese may not be his design. Building the mosque alone took from 1578 to 1580, and the hamam was finished in 1583. The central dome is 12.70 meters (41.7 ft) in diameter and rests on pendentives, granite piers and two half-domes, a plan that resembles Hagia Sophia.
The mosque has one minaret with a single gallery and 247 windows. Five small domes over the prayer hall rest on six marble columns. At first the mosque was right at the edge of the Bosphorus, but the water in front of it was filled in, and other buildings surround it. The courtyard has a marble fountain for ablutions, and the octagonal tomb of Kılıç Ali Pasha has a dome designed by Sinan.
