Overview
Bayezid I erected his imperial külliye on a hilltop east of central Bursa in 1390-1396 CE. 1
The complex
The külliye comprised a mosque with its zaviye (dervish hospice), two medreses, an imaret, a palace and the founder's türbe; only the mosque, one medrese and the türbe survive. The 1855 earthquake damaged it badly and cost it both minarets, never replaced. 1
