Hasandede, an important part of Anatolia's multicolored belief mosaic, lived in the 16th century and is an important figure of Hoca Ahmet Yesevi school. Next to the tomb is the mosque built during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent.

Hasandede, who came to Anatolia from Khorasan, participated in various wars with the Ottoman army. He acted as a mediator in the conflicts and rebellions in Anatolia. With the Sultan's edict, he was given land in the area where his tomb is now located.

Hz. Hasandede, who is known to be a descendant of Muhammad, is seen as a very important Islamic lawyer. He also has poems bearing traces of the philosophy of Hoca Ahmet Yesevi, Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli and Yunus Emre. He enlightened the people with his wise personality and poems.

The tomb is in a very important position by many people with religious sensitivities. It is a frequent destination for many visitors in every period of the year and especially in August when the Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli Commemoration Ceremonies are held.

The "Mecca Stone", which was brought from Mecca and positioned inside the mosque wall, adds a special importance to this location.
