description

Gül Baba’s octagonal tomb (törbe) is located on Mecset (mosque) Street,Budapest, a short but steep walk from the Margaret Bridge in the district of Rózsadomb.

The tomb was built by Mehmed Paşa, beylerbeyi of Buda, between 1543 and 1548 and has a shallow dome covered with lead plates and wooden tiles. It was left undamaged when the Habsburg armies captured the area during the Second Battle of Buda in 1686, but was converted into a Roman Catholic Chapel by the Jesuits, who renamed it “St Joseph’s Chapel”.
