Its story

The Karesi Bey Tomb was built for Karesi Bey, founder of the Karesioğulları Beylik, which ruled Balıkesir and its surroundings in the 14th century. The tomb contains the cenotaphs of Karesi Bey and his five sons. Destroyed in the 1898 earthquake, the building was rebuilt and restored by the mayor of the time. Karesi, the city's old name, which also gave its name to the district, comes from this beylik.
