Hasan Rıza Pasha Fountain, Ottoman fountain in Osmanağa, Turkey.

The square-shaped fountain features a barrel vault, reservoir, and three arches adorned with intricate stone carvings including a crescent and branch figures.

Commissioned by Hasan Riza Pacha in the 1840s, this limestone and brick fountain stands 5.6 meters tall and reflects the architectural style of the Ottoman Empire.

The fountain represents Ottoman social practices, positioned strategically near the Agha Cafer Pasha Mosque to facilitate traditional ablution rituals before prayers.

Located at an elevation of 19.73 meters above sea level, this water source continues to serve the local community in the Kadıköy district of Istanbul.

A marble inscription beneath the arches dates the construction to November 16, 1841, during the leadership of Hasan Kavizade Huseyin Efendi.
