Turbe of Saruhan Bey

The Turbe of Saruhan Bey (Turkish: Saruhan Bey Türbesi) is located in Manisa Province. Sarukhan bin Alpagi (13001345) was a Turkish Bey of Magnesia. Sarukhan was a Turkish Emir who is remembered for his conquest in the Anatolian Peninsula. In 1313, he occupied Thyatira and then left his name "Saruhan" to the region he had occupied, becoming an independent ruler and transmitting the region to his descendants. The turbe was built in 1348.
