Kurşunlu Monastery, located in the forest area within the borders of Dilek Peninsula National Park, approximately 12 km away from Kuşadası Davutlar District and at an altitude of 600 meters, is a Byzantine group of buildings and has a wonderful view.

VIII. One of the centers that emerged as a result of intense Christian migration in the 19th century is today's Davutlar settlement. Clerics escaping from oppression built churches and monasteries in these regions where they could hide and practice their religious duties. The monastery, which the Greeks call "Panagia Kursunniatissa", is dedicated to the Virgin Mary, as its name suggests. The name Kurşunlu probably comes from the lead that covers the buildings. It is thought that the Byzantine monastery was used until the 19th century.
