About

The mosque, located in a flat archaeological site near Kutluhan and Altınpınar villages, 49 km away from Haymana district centre, is now outside the settlement area. There is a tomb near the mosque where Sheikh Hüsameddin Ankaravi’s tomb is also located. Sheikh Hüsameddin Ankaravi, who was originally from Ankara and one of the Bayrami-Melami sheikhs, is one of the disciples of Hacı Bayram Veli according to Melami sources. The mosque and tomb were built with masonry technique where rubble stone was used as filling between cut stone inside and outside. Sheikh Hüsameddin Ankaravi Mosque and Tomb, built in the middle of the 16th century, has an important place in terms of representing the classical period religious architecture of the Ottoman Empire in Anatolia.
