Fountain of Qayt Bay or Sabil Qaitbay is a domed public fountain (''sabil'') located on the western esplanade of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem's Old City,〔(Sultan Qaytbay Sabil ) Archnet Digital Library.〕 situated fifty metres west of the Dome of the Rock.〔(Al-Aqsa Guide ) Al-Aqsa Friends 2007, #29.〕 Built in the fifteenth century by the Egyptians, it was completed in the reign of Qaitbay, Sultan of Egypt, after whom it is named. It has been called "the most beautiful edifice in the Temple Mount" after the Dome of the Rock.〔〔Peterson, Andrew. (1996). ''(Dictionary of Islamic architecture )''. Routledge, p.136.〕 ==History== The fountain was originally constructed in 1455 on the orders of the Egyptian Sultan al-Ashraf Sayf ad-Din Enal. In 1482, however, Sultan Qaitbay had it rebuilt, and the structure is named after him. The labour of erecting the building was done by Egyptian, and Circassian craftsmen under the supervision of a renowned Christian architect. The fountain was constructed in a style mostly seen in Egypt. In 1883, the Ottoman sultan Abdul Hamid II restored the fountain and constructed some additions to it.〔Murphy-O'Connor, Jeremiah. (2008).
