Seyitgazi 14062012_1530.jpg

Opposite the mosque and türbe part, across the courtyard, is the entrance to a large room with wooden floor, with in a corner a view towards the türbe of Çoban Baba (Shepherd Father) is said to have found the grave of Seyyid Battal Gazi. He is also known as Kutluca Baba.

On the picture: The view from the hall into the Türbe (mausoleum) of the 13th century Çoban Baba, which lies one floor down. This grave was probably rebuilt or re-shaped by the Ottomans around 1500.
