Abstract
This study covers the newly constructed and repaired churches in the aftermath of Reform Age in the sanjak Antalya. It is determined through the field studies and archival documents that seven churches have survived, namely the churches of Hagios Georgios and Yeni Kapı in the city center of Antalya, the churches of the so-called Hıdırellez, Hagios Konstantinos and Mikhael Archangelos in Alanya, Mosque Yeni (Kilise Camii/Eski Rum Kilisesi) and Kalkan Theotokos Church (today Mosque Mustafa Kocakaya). Out of the churches referred here, the construction process of three more churches can be traced in the archival documents. However, any precise data is not available on whether these spaces were built or not. The archival documents also bear data about some repairs for three churches.
All the surviving churches are rectangular in plan and single-naved. They are in masonry and bear a plain spatial arrangement. While one of the churches situated in the city center of Antalya has been arranged as a museum, the other, which is known as the Rum Church of Yeni Kapı is still in its authentic function. As for the churches in Alanya, the church currently known as Hıdırıllez has been repaired recently. The others, that’s Hagios Konstantinos and Mikhael Archangelos, are in ruin. Those in Kaş has been arranged as mosques and all in use. All the edifices were constructed in the aftermath of the year 1839.
