Ramazanoğlu Hall

Located southeast of the Ulu Camii, it was the Harem of the Ramadanid family and besides being a fine expression of modesty of the emirate, it is also an important work resembling the Mamluk mansions of Egypt.

According to the inscription on the south gate, Haremlik was completed by Halil Bey in the month of Sha'aban year 900 (April, 1495).

During the Ottoman Era, the hall served as a residence for number of sultans visiting Adana, including Suleiman the Magnificent and Selim I.
