Activity Overview

The Green Mausoleum (Yeşil Türbe) is one of Bursa’s most distinctive Ottoman monuments and an important part of the historic Yeşil Complex. Built in 1421 by order of Sultan Mehmed I, the mausoleum is the final resting place of the sultan and several members of the Ottoman royal family.

The mausoleum is renowned for its striking turquoise and green İznik tiles, which cover much of the interior and give the monument its name. Its elegant exterior, finely decorated entrance and richly ornamented interior represent the artistic achievements of the early Ottoman period.

Located opposite the Green Mosque, the Green Mausoleum is an important destination for visitors interested in Ottoman history, Islamic art and traditional Turkish architecture. The monument forms part of Bursa’s historic heritage, recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
