Tomb of the revered Sufi Rumi. It is also a museum with many dervish works.
The location of the Mevlana Dervish Lodge, which is used as a museum today, was the Rose Garden of the Seljuk Palace, and the garden was gifted to Mevlana’s father, Sultanü’l-Ulemâ Bâhaeddin Veled, by Sultan Alaeddin Keykubad. When Sultanü’l-Ulemâ died on January 12, 1231, he was buried in his current place in the tomb. This burial is the first burial in the rose garden. After the death of Sultanü’l-Ulema, those who loved him applied to Mevlana and said that they wanted to have a mausoleum built over his father’s grave, but Mevlana rejected this request, saying “What could be a better mausoleum than the dome of the sky?”
However, when he died on December 17, 1273, Mevlana’s son, Sultan Veled, accepted the requests of those who wanted to have a mausoleum built on Mevlana’s grave. The tomb called “Kubbe-i Hadra” (Green Dome) was built by the architect Bedrettin of Tabriz, on four elephant pillars (thick columns), at a cost of 130 thousand Seljuk dirhams. After this date, construction activities never ended and continued with additions until the end of the 19th century.
Works belonging to Mevlana and Mevlevi order, as well as manuscript books, tablets, oil lamps and musical instruments are exhibited in the museum. The specialized library in the museum was founded by Postnişin Mehmed Saîd Hemdem Çelebi in 1854.

All of the books were transferred to CD and made available to researchers.
