Haydarpaşa Train Station and Wharf
One of the first things that comes to mind when we say “Kadikoy”; The Heydar Pasha train station is the pole of the century that connects Istanbul to Anatolia and has hosted many Turkish films.
Construction of this iconic building began on May 30, 1906. Two German architects and 1,500 Italian stone masons worked to build it. The station opened on May 19, 1908. Prior to the construction of the station, the last stop on the railway connecting Anatolia to Istanbul, it was the first railway station to be built there until 1872. Salim III (Sultan of the period) ordered that the neighborhoods around Haidar Pasha station (Admiral Haidar) be named because of the goodwill of Haidar Pasha and his services to the Shah, who made great efforts to build the Salimiya garrisons. For this reason, the Sultan named the station building after him (Haydarpaşa). With the expansion of the railway network to Anatolia, the station became important as a common center. And the German company that operated the station at the time, known as Anadolu Demirular (Anatolian Railway). He built a pier in front of the station at his request. There are also silos built to store commercial goods by trains coming and going from Anatolian cities. It was initially established on 2525 square meters of land, then the station expanded to 3836 square meters and served seven railroads and four stops for many years. All the famous trains such as Orist Express, Capital Express, Fateh Express and Cortlan Express have been out of the station for years.
Haydarpaşa Station, built using light pink granite from Hereke, also has a special place in Istanbul in terms of architectural features. The bird’s view of the building, which is a classic German design, shows a “U” shape with a shorter leg. The building consists of large rooms with high ceilings. It is known that at the time of the construction of this station, hand embroidery was made on the roof of these rooms, but in fact, these were plastered. Today, only one room has a main embroidery, which is a symbol of the winged train wheels with the TCDD (Turkish State Railway) logo, which can be found in the four corners of the room. This station is built on 100 pieces of wood, each of which is 21 meters long. These beams were nailed using a steam hammer. It is clear that the main structure is based on a grid placed on top of these debris. This historic station is so strong that no damage is seen even in the event of a severe earthquake. Another architectural feature of the historic station is its wooden roof, which is a “mansard roof”, a style often used in classical German architecture. On the ground floor and mezzanine floors, a veneer is made of ottoman stone. There are rectangular wooden windows in the corners of the second and third floors of the building with edging. There are rectangular decorative columns between the windows. The exterior is decorated with a floral and geometric pattern. The beach of the building hosts circular towers at both ends. The towers become narrower from the base to the ceiling.
The project, developed by Helmuth Cuno and Otto Ritter, was launched and used by Italian and German stone masters. A large part of the station was damaged by a large fire in 1917. After this damage, it has been restored to its current form. The impact of hot weather caused by an explosion in a tanker and ship in Haidar Pasha in 1979 damaged lead-stained glass. On November 28, 2010, the station roof collapsed and the fourth floor of the building became unusable due to a large fire on the roof of the Haidar Pasha train station.
