Hammam was the last building on the territory of the Catherine Park. Taking the Turkish mosque in Adrianople and Turkish tradition to arrange a bath in the churches in the conquered territories, the architect Manigetti thus “said” the Turks to build this monument to the Russian-Turkish war. Construction went from 1850 to 1852. Inside the baths placed trophies from sultan’s palace in Adrianople, dating back to 16-17 centuries.
Six bath rooms are decorated in a Moorish style popular in the mid 19th century. Heating in the bath was not and it was not used for its intended purpose, but in the summer heat it was possible to hide from the sun and enjoy the coolness.
