Galata Mevlevi Lodge, also known as Kulekapı Mevlevi Lodge, is an old lodge located in the Beyoğlu district of Istanbul, Turkey. Built in 1491 by İskender Paşa, Galata Mevlevi Lodge was the first lodge in the city, with Semâî Mehmed Dede as its first sheikh. Between the second half of the 1500s and the early 1600s, it was used as a lodge and classroom affiliated with the Halvetiyye order. Through various repair and addition works at different times, it became a complex. Its activities were terminated in accordance with the law issued on October 25, 1925, which banned and abolished lodges, zaviyas, and tombs. After this period, the main structure of the lodge was converted into a primary school and housing, while other sections were used for different purposes. Following various initiatives, it was transformed into a museum and opened to visitors under the name Divan Literature Museum on December 27, 1975. Restoration works have been periodically carried out since that date. After the latest restoration that began in 2007, it started serving as Galata Mevlevi Lodge Museum on November 21, 2011.
Today, within the lodge complex, the main building includes the semahane (ritual hall) and dervish rooms, Halet Efendi Library, Sebil (public water fountain) and Tomb, Şeyh Galib Tomb, Hasan Ağa Fountain, cistern, hâmûşân (kitchen), Adile Sultan Fountain, and laundry room.
