Beşikçizade Sufi Lodge

Although the Sufi Lodge was originally Naqshi, it passed to the Khalwatiyya during the period of the third post-holder, Beypazarî El-Hac Ali Efendi.
After Beypazarî Ali Efendi, it briefly entered the Khalidi-Naqshi line; in the second half of the 19th century, with Sheikh Sa’deddin Efendi assuming the post, it came to be counted among the Sunbuli Sufi lodges.
After remaining ruined and abandoned for a period, Hasan Kamil Efendi revived the Sufi Lodge, and it was again included among the Naqshi Sufi lodges.
The activity of the Sufi Lodge ended in 1925; after the building was left to the family for residence on the condition of life tenancy, it remained abandoned for a long time.
In the fire of 2009, the building was damaged apart from one section belonging to the tawhidkhana.
With decision no. 2512 dated 3 December 2008, the Istanbul IV Regional Conservation Board decided on the restoration of the building.
The building was restored by Fatih Municipality in 2011.

The Sufi Lodge is an example of a dervish lodge in late-18th-century Istanbul that can be traced through changes in tariqah affiliation between Naqshbandi and Khalwati circles.
Among the water structures associated with the Sufi Lodge is the Beşikçizade Fountain dated 1692-1693.
The graveyard belonging to the Sufi Lodge has survived to the present day.
Among the urban elements associated with the Sufi Lodge are a well and an ablution trough (water trough).
