Kamereddin Kümbet
Divriği, Sivas
A stone kümbet dated 1196, belonging to Kamereddin, the Mengujekid treasurer.
Its story
The Kamereddin Kümbet was built in 1196 in the name of Kamereddin, treasurer of the Mengujekid principality. Among the early-period kümbets in Divriği, it is dated to the same year as the Sitte Melik Kümbet. Its plain cut-stone body reflects the funerary monument tradition of the Mengujekid period. It is located near the Ulu Mosque in the district center and can be toured together with the other kümbets on a short walk. It is one of the buildings showing that Divriği carries a rich medieval heritage beyond the Ulu Mosque.
