The Tomb of Suleyman Shah (Turkish: Süleyman Şah Türbesi) is a site situated in Aleppo Governorate, Syria. It is the burial place of Suleyman Shah, the grandfather of Osman I, the founder of the Ottoman Empire. He is believed to have drowned in the Euphrates river in modern-day Syria and an Ottoman tomb in or near Qal'at Ja'bar has been associated with Suleyman Shah.
The tomb has been moved twice and is (from early 2015) in Turkish-controlled territory 200 meters inside Syria, 22 km (14 mi) west of Kobanî and less than 2 km (1.2 mi) southeast of the Turkish village of Esmesi (Esmeler or Esme or Eshme). The Turkish government intends the relocation to be temporary. The Turkish prime minister Ahmet Davutoglu visited the new site in May 2015.
First relocation
In 1973, the location of the tomb was flooded when the Tabqa Dam created Lake Assad. At that time, the tomb was moved to a new location at 36°38′22″N 38°12′27″E some 85 km (53 mi) north of Qal'at Ja'bar,[7] but also on the Euphrates riverside 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) northwest of the town of Sarrin and some 27 km (17 mi) from the Turkish border. Until February 2015, Turkey maintained a small military presence as an honour guard at the site.
On 20 March 2014, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant threatened to attack the site unless the Turkish troops were withdrawn within three days.
Second relocation
On the night of 21–22 February 2015, a Turkish military convoy including tanks and other armored vehicles numbering about 100 entered Syria to evacuate the tomb's 40 guards and repatriate the remains. The tomb complex was destroyed to prevent its use by ISIS. The tomb is now located in Turkish-controlled territory, less than 2 km (1.2 mi) southeast of the Turkish village of Esmesi (Esmeler or Esme or Eshme)
