The Tomb of Nasreddin Hodja stands over the grave of the famous humorist Nasreddin Hodja, who died in Akşehir in 1284. The area around the grave was later turned into a mausoleum; the structure, formed of two nested baldachin sections, was covered in 1878 with a pyramidal cap carried on twelve columns. Its open sides, with only one side closed by a padlock, are seen as a reflection of Nasreddin Hodja's sense of humor. Besides Nasreddin Hodja, the tomb also holds the grave of Habibe, daughter of Sultan Mehmed I.
