Farhat Square (Sahat Farhat) is one of the oldest squares in the Syrian city of Aleppo. It is located in the old Jdeydeh District, outside the historic walls of the Ancient City of Aleppo. Farhat Square is a symbolic area of Christianity in Aleppo as three cathedrals are located there: Greek Catholic, Armenian and Maronite. Churches have been in the area since the 15th Century. The square and the buildings around it have been damaged by heavy fighting between combatants during the Battle of Aleppo (2012–16). Similar destruction occurred to the area during Aleppo's sectarian unrest of 1850.
