İsmail bey hamamı

A notice translates as "Ismail bey bath (Selcuk bath). For its architectural features, it has a special place in the history of Turkish art. Since the inscription or source data are not known, it is estimated to date form a wide time period from the 14th century to the 17th century. The bathhouse is south-east with four domes in pairs, arranged side by side with parallel axes in the north-south direction. Its rectangular plan in the east-west direction consists of a foundation remains. The rectangular shaped space number III was narrowed into a square in the east by a wide arch and covered with a spiral dome. The bath, which has plain and non-segmented facades, was built with rubble stone, brick and mortar material." The bathhouse was in a bad condition, but there was a provisory roof over it, so it may well be restored. It looked about the same as small bath I found many years later, see the picture of that.
