The Yeşil Türbe (Green Tomb) is part of a larger religious building complex that includes, among other structures, a mosque (Yeşil Cami) and a madrasa. It is located in Bursa, the Ottoman capital before the conquest of Edirne in the 760s AH / 1360s AD and of Constantinople in 857 AH / 1453 AD. It was commissioned by Murad II as a mausoleum for his father Sultan Mehmed I (reigned 816–824 AH / 1413–1421 AD). Construction was completed in 823 AH / 1421 AD.
After severe damage caused by an earthquake in 1271 AH / 1855 AD, restoration works were carried out in the 1270s–80s AH / 1860s AD with the collaboration of the French decorator Léon Parvillée.
