- Abstract
Sarı Ahmed Pasha, who lived in 15th century, was an Ottoman statesman known by his philanthropy. He built a complex of buildings in which a mosque, a school, a madrasah, an imaret, a hammam and a caravanserai were located and he established a foundation for the purpose of maintain these buildings in a good condition. The established foundation and the buildings had a great role in the development of Akhisar. With its 530 years of history, the heritage of the Sarı Ahmed Pasha foundation is still with us today and it is quite rich. The foundation still continues its function of serving community. This study will provide contributions to enlighten the cultural history of the centers of, mainly, Akhisar, and of Manisa, Göl Marmara, Bergama, Edremit, Kemer, and Ayazmend as well as serving original information about Ahmed Pasha's biography and his works.
