| contents | <p>Bursa, one of the ancient cities of Anatolia, stands out with its multi-layered history extending from the Roman to the Ottoman periods. One of the city’s most defining characteristics has always been its rich thermal resources. During the Roman period, baths were not only spaces for hygiene and health but also important centers of social life (Şehitoğlu, 2008). This tradition continued during the Byzantine period; monumental structures such as the Basilicae Thermae reflected the culture of health and sociability in the city. In the Ottoman era, baths and thermal buildings became important foci of urban development, while the Çekirge and Kükürtlü districts emerged as prominent centers of treatment, cleanliness, and social interaction (Erer, 2004). 2<br>The Kükürtlü Bath is one of the most tangible examples of this continuity. Its origins date back to the Roman period; its function was expanded during the Byzantine era as a bath complex, and it was reconstructed during the reign of Sultan Murad I. Further extensions were made in the time of Bayezid II and Suleiman the Magnificent, revealing the historical layers of the structure. Archival sources even indicate that Suleiman himself was treated here and, after recovering, ordered the domes to be covered with lead, a fact that demonstrates the building’s place not only in health but also in political and social memory (Erer, 2004). </p> |
