The so-called 'Dediği Dede tekkesi' is located in the close vicinity of the villages of Mahmudhisar and Tekke near Ilgın. It is built on a hill-top overlooking the road passing through the settlements, a small pine wood covering the hills to the North and East. A badly built entrance gate of fairly recent date leads into a rectangular courtyard giving access to the building from the North, and surrounded by a wall about 2.5 m. in height. Within the building itself, three sections can be distinguished. From the courtyard the visitor passes into a rectangular chamber 17.40 m. long and 2.60 m. wide, the axis pointing in an east-west direction. As apparent from the construction joint in the south wall, this section is a later addition to the original building.
