The Şeyh Bedrettin Baths are an Ottoman hammam in İvrindi District, Balıkesir Province in northwestern Turkey, named after a religious figure whose memory shaped the spiritual landscape of the region. Şeyh Bedrettin was a celebrated mystic and theologian whose influence extended across the Balkans and Anatolia during the early Ottoman period, and bath complexes bearing his name honored that legacy. The hammam served generations of local residents as a place of purification, social gathering, and community life.
