Hafsa Hatun (Ottoman Turkish: حفصه خاتون) was a Turkish princess, and the wife of Bamsi Beyrek, 14th century, of the Ottoman Empire.
Life[]
Hafsa Hatun was the daughter of Isa Bey, the ruler of the Aydinids. She was married to Bayezid in 1390 upon his conquest of the Aydinids.[1][2] Her father had surrendered without a fight, and a marriage was arranged between her and Bayezid. Thereafter, Isa was sent to exile in Iznik, shorn of his power, where he subsequently died.[3][4] Her marriage strengthened the bonds between the two families.[5]
Charities[]
Hafsa Hatun's public works are located within her father's territory and may have been built before she married Bayezid.[1] She commissioned a fountain in Tire city and a Hermitage in Bademiye, and a mosque known as "Hafsa Hatun Mosque"[6] between 1390 and 1392 from the money she received in her dowry.[7]
