Ishak Pasha Palace is a semi-ruined Ottoman-period palace and administrative complex in the Doğubeyazıt district of Ağrı Province, eastern Turkey. Construction began in 1685 under Colak Abdi Pasha of the Cildirogullari, a hereditary Kurdish pasha family, and was continued by his descendant Ishak Pasha, after whom the palace is named. An inscription on its door records that the Harem section was completed in 1784. It is one of the few surviving historical Turkish palaces and was depicted on the reverse of the Turkish 100 new lira banknote of 2005–2009.
