Great History

The Rumeli Hisarı is located in the Sarıyer district of Istanbul, on the Bosphorus. The great conqueror of Istanbul was built by Fatih Sultan Mehmed. Rumeli Hisari Castle is composed of a small tower, three main towers and thirteen small watchtowers connected to the castle walls. Sultan gave importance to this architecture. He took part in the construction himself. The three large towers are named with the names of the three grand viziers of the Sultan. Halil Pasha, Zaganas Pasha and Sarika Pasha. Rumeli Hisarı and Anadolu Hisarı are like two soldiers facing each other. This magnificent work of Fatih Sultan Mehmed was completed on August 31, 1452. It is located at the narrowest part of Istanbul's throat. It was made to prevent attacks that may come to Istanbul. Now, cultural and artistic events and major concert organizations are held.
