The Haseki Sultan Imaret was a public kitchen built in Makkah by Sultan Suleyman in the name of his wife Hürrem Sultan, known as Haseki Sultan, after her passing in 1558. It was the first imaret the Ottomans opened in the two Harams, and its costs were met from properties endowed for it in Egypt. It was the work of the architect Sinan, who also built the Suleymaniye Madrasas and two public hammams in the city. The building no longer stands. Its site, about 290 metres north-east of the Ka'bah, has since been built over by the enlarged Haram and the buildings around it.
