Sinan Čelebi Türbe

The Sinan Čelebi Türbe is a tomb structure in Ohrid featuring a dome and narrow window openings typical of its style. Inside, a central chamber contains burial markers and carved stone details along the walls.

The mausoleum was built in 1493 during a period of external rule that shaped the region's architecture. It represents one of several religious structures that reflect that era's influence on the city.

The tomb shows how Islamic burial traditions mixed with local building methods that developed over time. The way it sits within the old town tells of a period when different communities lived side by side.

The structure sits in a residential neighborhood with narrow streets around it that can be tricky to navigate on foot. It is best visited during daylight hours and you should check access ahead of time.

The stone surfaces are covered with geometric patterns and inscribed text that preserve skilled craftwork from that time. Such finely worked details are uncommon to encounter at this location.
