The tomb of Hacı Bayram-ı Veli adjoins the qibla wall of the Hacı Bayram Mosque and was built for him in 1429. Inside it stand nine cenotaphs of pine wood in two rows: the large one in the first row is that of Hacı Bayram-ı Veli, and the other eight are those of eight of the sheikhs who followed him.

The tomb is square in plan, with an octagonal drum and a lead-covered dome. On the west front are the entrance and the window of supplication, and this part is built of white Afyon marble. The south wall is made of cut sandstone blocks in a similar tone. The lower part of the east front is built of rubble stone, and from a height of about two metres upward the alternating technique is used, with two courses of brick to one of rubble stone. The dome covering is laid with two courses of brick to one of cut stone.
