Lohusa Sultan Türbesi stands in Kasımpaşa, a neighbourhood within Beyoğlu, Istanbul, and belongs to the city’s architectural heritage. The mausoleum connects Ottoman history with local folklore. It holds Lohusa Sultan’s tomb beside additional graves whose occupants remain unidentified in the record. Local folklore surrounds the named burial site.

According to legend, during Sultan Mehmed the Third’s reign, a soldier left for war while his wife was heavily pregnant. The woman died before her soldier husband returned. Her child survived, and that unexpected survival led to the mausoleum’s construction. In 2020, thieves stole its lead roof during the COVID-19 lockdown. Restoration replaced the missing covering with roof tiles, changing the material while preserving the building’s architectural form.
