Seyitgazi dec 2007 1909.jpg

Pictures in the medrese dedicated to Ümmühan Hatun, who was the wife of Gıyaseddin Keyhüsrev I and the mother of Alaeddin Keykubat I. She died in Konya. Her son Keykubat brought her body to Seyitgazi, where she was buried inside a medrese in accordance with her testament. She had this medrese built before she died. There is no information about her date of death and her life provided on the tomb.

On the picture: The northern part of the Ümmühan Medresesi, where the türbe (mausoleum) of Ümmühan Hatun was arranged in the apse of the building. There is a door under the double stairs, giving access to the tomb chamber with her cenotaph sarcophagus.

Correspondent: J.M.Criel, Antwerpen.
