Tomb of Sultan Murad


The Tomb of Sultan Murad is a mausoleum dedicated to the Ottoman Sultan Murad I located in the Prishtina District, Kosovo.
Murad I was killed in the Battle of Kosovo in 1389. The monument was built in the 14th century by Murad I's son Bayezid I, becoming the first example of Ottoman architecture in the Kosovo territory. His internal organs were buried in Kosovo Polje and remain to this day in the tomb at the site. Murad's other remains were taken to Bursa, his Anatolian capital city, and buried there in his second tomb at the Hüdavendigâr complex in Bursa.
The monument was mentioned by Evliya Çelebi in 1660. The tomb has gained a religious significance for the local Muslims.
