DOUBLE MINARET MEDRESSE
No inscription can be found on the merdeese about its consturiction. It is one of the biggest medresse in Anatolia. Open court, four pper hals and two storey medresse are thought to be built in the Ilhaind period and the and of the 13 th Century and begining of the 14 th Century. In the Ottoman period the building was used as an arsenal during the time of Murat the fourth, then latter as a barracks. The court is in the dimensions of 26x10 m. and is sorrounded by a porch. The room in the west of the entrance is a small mosque. The pupils rooms are located on either side of the court. The desing of the downstairs is the same as the upstairs. The botanical decorations in the medresse are the best samples of stonework and decoration of the Anatolian Seljuk period. The figured panels, a part of the coration, have the traces of the turkish belifs of Middle Asia, Some panels such as the double-headed eagle, life tree and dragons were left half completed.
