Hasan Basri Tomb

There is also the opportunity to have a picnic in a beautiful area. The tomb is beautiful within the interest of the municipality.

It is a spiritual place with a beautiful view and nature.

Hasan Basri is a very nice and clean place, a place to visit and picnic with your loved ones.

It is in the Karahan District of Battalgazi District, next to the Kırk Kardeşler Cemetery. It is rumored that Hasan Basri came from Basra in the 7th century AD and lived around Malatya. He is known as a saint. The tomb, which attracts many visitors, was later renovated with concrete, leaving no trace of the old structure. It was demolished in 1943 and repaired in 1945 due to the slips on the ground due to the fact that the place where the visiting building is located is near the water. When cracks occurred in the building again in 1965, it was rebuilt as reinforced concrete with the work of the villagers. While the mausoleum was located in Korucuk village, where the Euphrates River and Tohma water meet, in 1986 by Battalgazi Municipality, the mausoleum was built in its current location, which will be under the waters of the Karakaya Dam Lake, together with the outbuildings of the shrine, and the mausoleum was moved here. For this reason, the tomb is also called Korucuk.

There is a small shrine and camellias you can sit around. Don't expect too much, but I would say go anyway. Eskimalatya is about 1 kilometer from Battalgazi district center.

A place I know its old form. It is a place mostly visited by our Alevi citizens. Years ago I was going from time to time. It was a neglected place back then. But now Battalgazi Municipality has become a very clean and decent place, both a visiting place and a nice picnic area. The view is also extremely beautiful

No problem with free entry parking. It's a quiet place. There are areas for barbecue.
