Seyyid Battal Gazi Complex
Seyyid Battal Gazi Külliyesi
A hillside complex of Seljuk to Ottoman-era saint tombs and dervish lodges, an important pilgrimage site in Anatolia.
The complex honors the legendary Arab-Turkic hero Seyyid Battal Gazi. Founded in the 13th century by the mother of a Seljuk sultan and later expanded under the Ottomans, it includes a massive 7-meter-long stone sarcophagus tomb, a mosque, a dervish lodge, and a madrasa, all built in tiers up the hillside. It is located in Seyitgazi town, about 45 km south of Eskişehir, and is often visited as a stop on the way to Midas City. Visitors should dress modestly.
