Küçüksu Palace is a palace situated in Küçüksu neighbourhood of Beykoz district, at the Asian shore of Bosphorus between Anadoluhisarı and Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge today. The tiny palace was used by Ottoman sultans for short stays during country excursions and hunting.

The palace was commissioned by Sultan Abd-ul-Mejid (1823-1861), and designed and constructed by the Armenian architects Garabet Amira Balyan and his son Nigoğayos Balyan in baroque style. A two storey timber palace on the waterfront here, built during the reign of Mahmud I (1696- 1754), by his Grand Vizier Divittar Mehmed Pasha and continued to be used by Selim III (1761-1808) and Mahmud II (1785-1839), gave place to the new palace, which was completed in 1857.
