===Fire of 1660===
The fire of 4–5 July 1660 was the worst conflagration Constantinople had experienced to date. It started in Eminönü and spread to most of the historic peninsula, burning much of the city. Even the minarets of Suleiman I's mosque burned. Two-thirds of Istanbul was turned to ash in the conflagration, and as many as forty thousand people were killed. Thousands died in the [[famine]] and [[Plague (disease)|plague]] which followed the fire. Following the fire, the dynasty expelled Jews from a wide swath of Istanbul, confiscated their synagogues and homes so that in their place the Yeni Cami ([[New Mosque, Istanbul|New Mosque]]) and the Spice Bazaar (Egyptian Market) could be built.{{citation needed|date=August 2023}}
