Erikli Baba Tomb

The tomb is located in the front courtyard of the lodge, within a simple marble fence.

The grave of Erikli Baba is the only grave in the lodge without a name inscription.

The tomb building was built in the appearance of a traditional wooden Ottoman mansion and is integrated with the dervish lodge.

Inside the tomb, there are several more graves belonging to people who served as postnişin (the head of a Sufi lodge).

In 1993, the lodge was revived and turned into a multifunctional cultural area containing a soup kitchen, library, washing house, slaughterhouse and cem hall.

The tomb and dervish lodge is an important center in the Alevi-Bektashi tradition and serves the community with sacrifice, cem, semah and various cultural activities.
