Kurşunlu Hamam
Sivas, Türkiye

Kurşunlu Hamam (Lead-Domed Hammam) is located in the old city of Sivas, Turkey, east of the Ulu Camii and next door to Behram Paşa Hanı. It was constructed in 1576/983-984 AH by Sağir Behram Paşa who was part of the Ottoman provincial administration. The hammam is named for its two lead-covered domes, typical of Ottoman imperial architecture, that cover its two apodyteriums.
