The Alâeddin Mosque of Konya, in Turkish Alâeddin Cami, is one of the oldest mosques of Seljuk architecture in Asia Minor and the burial place of several important Rum-Seljuk sultans. It is part of the building complex of the citadel on Alâeddin Hill (Alâeddin tepesi) in Konya. [1] [2] The building complex (külliye) is located on an artificially raised hill, the former acropolis of the ancient city of Ikonion. Until the 1920s, the Byzantine Hagios-Amphilochios church, which was remodeled to Eflatun-Mescid, was located on the edge of the hill plateau. To the north of the mosque there used to be a palace, of which only the foundation walls of a tower have survived today. The walls of the citadel were torn down in 1896. [
