Life

During the early Ottoman Conquests in the reign of Osman I, Turgut Alp was sent to Angelacoma (present-day İnegöl) and he conquered the area.[4] [5] This area consisting some villages, was given to him by Osman I and his territory was called Turgut-ili (Province of Turgut).[6] [7] [8] During the Siege of Bursa, Turgut Alp, along with Osman's warrior Mihal Gazi, participated in the conquest of Atranos Castle (later known as Orhaneli) in 1325, which played a key role in leading to the Ottoman conquest of Bursa during the reign of Sultan Orhan. He was also with Orhan during the conquest of Bursa (1326).[9] [10]

His tomb is located in the cemetery of Turgutalp (Genci) village, İnegöl, Turkey.[11] The grave outside the Ertugrul Ghazi's mausoleum is an honorary grave, not the real burial place.[12]
