Hamam al-Sammara (Arabic: حمام السمرا, also spelled Hamaam as-Sumara; transliteration: "the Bath of the Samaritans" or "the Brown Bath") was a hammam (traditional public bathhouse) in the Zeitoun Quarter of the Old City of Gaza. It was situated 3 meters (9.8 ft) below street level.[1] It was owned by Salim Abdullah al-Wazeer.[2] The bathhouse was destroyed by airstrike from Israeli forces in December 2023; at the time it was the only active hammam in Gaza.
