The Camondo Stairs (Turkish: Kamondo Merdivenleri) are Art Nouveau-style stairs in the Galata district of Istanbul, Turkey.[1] [2] The stairs, completed in the 1850s, were built by the House of Camondo.

Lonely Planet says, "The curvaceous 18th-century Camondo Stairs, one of Beyoğlu's most distinctive pieces of urban design, run south from Kart Çınar Sokak."[3]
