Its story

The tomb was originally in the village of Korucuk; when the village was submerged by the waters of the Karakaya Dam, the building was moved to Battalgazi, and for this reason it is also known as the Korucuk Tomb. It is a place of faith visited by the people of the region. It is also interesting as an example showing how dam lakes changed the settlements of the Euphrates valley. It can be visited on the same day as the Ulu Mosque and the kümbets in Old Malatya.
