Divriği is a town and a district of Sivas Province of Turkey. The town lies on gentle slope on the south bank of the Çaltısuyu river, a tributary of the Karasu river.During the Byzantine period the town, then called Tephrike or Tephrice, was an important stronghold for the Paulicians.The medieval (13th century) castle remains still exist on top of a steep hill.
In 1228-29, while Divriği was under the rule of the Mengujekids Emir Ahmed Shah, he commissioned a mosque (Divriği Great Mosque – Divriği Ulu Camii in Turkish) which stands fully intact. The mosque, along with the adjoining Medical Center (Darüşşifa), built simultaneously with the mosque by Turan Melek Sultan, daughter of the Mengujek ruler of Erzincan, Fahreddin Behram Shah, are included on UNESCO’s World Heritage List by virtue of its exquisite carvings and architecture of both building.
