This small cave is actually a hermitage of the Saint Sheikh Hassan Demir baba Pechlivan. He lived in the cave in the 16th century and was buried in a small chapel below. This chapel is called Demir Baba Teke (the tomb of Demir baba) and a famous pilgrimage destination especially for Turkish pilgrims, as Demir Baba was a Turkish spiritual leader. But it is also a destination for tourist who visit Thrakian tombs, as the chapel was built on top of an important tomb.
