Hammam Bab al-Ahmar (Arabic: حمام الباب الأحمر, romanized: Hamaam Bāb al-Aḥmar) meaning the Red Gate, is a hammam located in Aleppo.
Located in the Ancient City of Aleppo, near the Citadel of Aleppo, it is famous for its dome and decor from the Ottoman era.
The Hammam was closed and badly damaged due to the Syrian conflict. It was renovated in 2017 and a restaurant and café have been added to the spa.
