Çifte Minareli Medrese, Erzurum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the same named medrese in Sivas, see Çifte Minareli Medrese (Sivas).
Çifte Minareli Medrese (Persian: مدرسه اسلامی جفت مناره) is an architectural monument of the late Seljuk period in Erzurum City, Erzurum Province, Turkey. Built as a theological school a few years before 1265,[1] it takes its name, Twin Minaret Madrasa, from the two fluted minarets that crown the monumental façade.
