The Ahırkapı Feneri is a historic lighthouse in the Ahırkapı neighborhood of Istanbul's Fatih district, Turkey, standing at the southern tip of Seraglio Point on the Rumelian coast of the Bosporus's southern entrance. Built in 1755 and rising 28 metres, it remains in use. It faces the Kadıköy İnciburnu Feneri on the Anatolian coast across a distance of about 2.8 km, and a line between the two marks the southern boundary of the Port of Istanbul.
