Kesikkopru Han The Kesikköprü Han is situated on the right bank of the Kızılırmak River, 18 km south of Kirşehir along the Kirşehir-Kayseri Road. The Han is located adjacent to a magnificent Seljuk bridge that spans the river. This bridge, one of the oldest examples of Seljuk bridges in Turkey, features 13 arches and still boasts its original decorative inscription plaque. Constructed by Emir Nureddin Cebrail Bey in 1268 during the reign of Anatolian Seljuk Sultan Keyhüsrev III, son of Kiliçarslan IV. The entrance of the Han was located along the old caravan route out of Kirşehir, leading directly to the headwaters of the Kızılırmak River, one of the most important and historical rivers of central Anatolia. Although the original stone bridge was made of limestone, it was later restored using other types of stone. The arch bridge is supported by triangular bulges at its feet and features 13 arches. While the bridge still stands, a modern bridge constructed approximately 180 meters to the west now carries traffic.
