Russian term

тюрбе

Russian to English Art/Literary History
From a work on architectural monuments of Constantinople.

I'm assuming it's something like a crypt or mausoleum, but what distinguishes it from a гровница

К западу от Халкопратии проходила очень важная улица Константинополя, называвшаяся Великой. Она ответвлялась от Месы в районе нынешнего тюрбе султана Махмуда (cм. с…) и шла в северо-восточном направлении, примерно соответствуя современным Catalçeşme Cad., Alayköskü cad. и Ankara Cad.

Grateful in advance.
