Since its establishment, Mudanya has maintained its position as the gateway and pier of Bursa to the sea and has maintained its importance in every period with its commercial and cultural environment apart from its geographic and topographic structure. Some ruins of the ancient city of Myrleia/ Apamea of the Ancient Age, where Mudanya came to the stage of history as a colonial settlement, are still visible. Mudanya, densely populated by the Greeks in the Byzantine period, conquered by Ottomans in 1321. The city, which was determined as “kaza” center in Bursa Hüdavendigar Province in administrative terms during the Ottoman period, was constructed with religious, commercial and civilian buildings by different persons. In this context, Tahir Pasha, known for his works in Bursa and especially in Mudanya, had an effective influence, with his political and religious aspects, on Ottoman palace and Bursa provincial council. He died in 1870 in İstanbul while he was “surre emir” besides holding the rank of pasha. Pasha’s 1286 H/1869 CE dated waqf certificate charter is noteworthy that it contains some information about both Mudanya and his own lineage. This study mainly touches upon Tahir Pasha’s mansion in Mudanya, now used as a museum, and the Turkish bath named after him that are in good condition as a result of repair works.
Mudanya, kurulduğu tarihten günümüze Bursa'nın denize açılan kapısı, iskelesi konumunu sürdürmüş, kendine has coğrafi- topoğrafik yapısının dışında, ticari ve kültürel ortamı ile de her dönemde önemini korumuştur. Koloni yerleşimi olarak tarih sahnesine çıktığı Antik Çağdaki Myrleia/Apemea kentinin bazı kalıntıları halen görülebilmektedir. Bizans döneminde Rum nüfusun yoğun yaşadığı Mudanya, 1321'de Osmanlılar tarafından fethedilir. Osmanlı döneminde idari açıdan Hüdavendigar/ Bursa Eyaletinde kaza merkezi olarak belirlenen şehir, zamanla farklı baniler tarafından dini, ticari ve sivil nitelikli yapılar inşa ettirilerek imar edilir. Bu bağlamda Bursa merkez ve özellikle Mudanya’ya yaptırdığı eserlerle tanınan Tahir Paşa, Osmanlı Sarayı ve Bursa eyalet meclisi nezdinde siyasi ve dini yönüyle etkin bir nüfusa sahipti. Kendisine verilen paşalık rütbesinin dışında, son görevi surre eminliği/surre alayları eminliği iken 1870'de vefat eder. Paşa’nın 1286 H./1869 M. tarihli vakfiyesi, gerek Mudanya gerek Tahir Paşa’nın kendi soyu ile ilgili önemli bilgiler içermesi açısından kayda değerdir. Tahir Paşa’nın Mudanya ilçesinde günümüzde müze-ev olarak değerlendirilen konağı ile yine kendi adıyla tanınan çifte hamamı yapılan onarımlar sonucu iyi durumdadır ve bu makalenin de ana temasını oluşturmaktadır.
