Constructed by Fatih Sultan Mehmet in 1452, the Rumeli Fortress was strategically designed to prevent aid from reaching the city from the north of the Bosphorus during a siege. Remarkably erected in just four months, it stands directly opposite the Anadolu Fortress. The fortress spans an impressive 30 decares and boasts three large towers and walls, four main gates, and a secondary gate known as the Cemetery Gate.

Due to restoration work, only the garden of Rumeli Fortress is open to visitors at the moment. You can explore the garden, view the historic cannons and ammunition, and enjoy the lovely views. There are also areas where you can sit and relax. Additionally, you can visit the mosque built on top of the Rumeli Fortress theater.

Furthermore, it houses four additional towers and a museum garden. Here, you'll find displays of cannons, roses, terracotta, stone works, and even a section of the chain believed to have sealed off the Golden Horn. Immerse yourself in Istanbul's rich past and historical heritage by booking your tickets to the Rumeli Fortress today!
