On Şeyh Yunus Hill in the Yunusemre quarter of Ünye, this türbe is popularly attributed to the Sufi poet Yunus Emre (c.1240-1320); local tradition holds the person buried here was 'Topal Yusuf Baba'. Yunus Emre's true burial place is disputed across Anatolia. The Ünye site is a first-degree protected area, open as a complex with mosque, fountain and semah area.
