Ottoman Building

South of the Agora Roman Bath sits an Ottoman building – the function of which remains unknown – on 1,000 m² patch of space. Recent excavation work (since 2017) has revealed traces of a street to the east, and two doors providing access to the building from that street.  At the corner, right where the building’s southern and eastern walls converge, lies a cistern with fountain.

The building is believed to date back to the 19^th Century. Alas, little is understood at this point about how its interior was laid out. However, the building’s northern wing was used until the late 20^th Century. Moreover, there are also remains of a series of rooms that was separated by a corridor that are in relatively good condition. They date back to the founding of the Modern Turkey.
