Halicarnassus Mausoleum is one of the historical buildings worth seeing in Bodrum. Built by his wife and sister in the name of King Mausolus in 353 B.C, it is also called the Tomb of King Mussolus. The mausoleum represents Greek and Egyptian architecture. The stones of the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus were used during the construction of Bodrum Castle. It is assumed that the monument was destroyed by an earthquake, after about 1,500 years of inactivity. The remaining parts of the museum are on display in the British Museum.
