Ebül Kasım Tusi was a forward looking Seljuk vizier (minister) who had his tomb build in his home town during his lifetime. The building date (1233) of this ‘Ali Tusi Türbesi’ is written above one of the windows, in geometric Kufic script which is well adapted to the glazed brick decoration that was used.
The tomb was restored in 1998. You’ll find it along the Sulusokak (=’Sulu street’).
