Bereketzade Fountain, Ottoman fountain in Beyoğlu, Turkey

The Bereketzade Fountain stands near the Galata Tower, featuring marble surfaces covered with relief decorations and Ottoman architectural elements.

Built in the 18th century during the reign of Sultan Mahmud I, the fountain underwent several restorations, including one in 1844 by Bezmiâlem Vâlide Sultan.

The fountain reflects the transition period of Ottoman architecture when Western influences started appearing in public structures during Ahmed III's reign.

Located at the base of Galata Tower's wall since 1957, the fountain remains accessible through nearby public transportation and walking paths.

The fountain received water from the Beyoğlu-Tophane-Galata water network, established specifically for this district in the 18th century.
