Saliha Sultan Fountain, a typical square fountain of 18th century Ottoman architecture, was built on the order of Valide Saliha Sultan, mother of Sultan Mahmud I, by the architect Mehmet Ağa. In the style of the Tulip Period of architecture, the foundation is adorned with marble floral motifs. This decorative layer was partially demounted in 1910 by Kemal Altan to be renovated, but it couldn’t be replaced for some years because of the First World War. The second restoration was perfomed by Ali Saim Ülgen between 1952 and 1953. With the construction of a new road in front of the fountain, its position within the square was lost. Having not been in use for many years, the fountain was restored in the 1990s by Pious Foundations and is now functioning once again. SALT Research, Söylemezoğlu Archive

Saliha Sultan Çeşmesi, 18. yüzyılda kamusal mekânı tanımlamak ve zenginleştirmek üzere inşa edilmiş meydan çeşmelerindendir. Tümüyle mermer kaplı olan çeşme, tipik bir Lale Devri yapısı özelliği olan bitki motifleriyle dikkati çeker. 1732-1733’te, I. Mahmud’un annesi Valide Saliha Sultan tarafından, mimarbaşı Kayserili Mehmet Ağa’ya yaptırıldı. 1910’da Kemal Altan tarafından restore edilmek üzere kısmen söküldü ama araya Birinci Dünya Savaşı’nın girmesiyle restorasyon uzunca bir süre tamamlanamadı. İkinci restorasyon çalışması, 1952-1953’te Ali Saim Ülgen tarafından yapıldı. Daha sonra önünden geçirilen yolla meydan çeşmesi olma özelliğini yitirdi. Uzun yıllar atıl vaziyette durduktan sonra, 1990’larda Vakıflar Genel Müdürlüğü tarafından onarılarak yeniden çeşme olarak işlev görmeye başladı.
