Zincirli Madrasa, Islamic educational institution in Bakhchysarai, Russia.
Zincirli Madrasa stands near the center of Bakhchysarai, featuring traditional Islamic architectural elements and a prominent chain above its entrance door.
The madrasa, established in 1500 by Meñli I Giray, transformed into a medical school following the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and later became part of a mental hospital.
This educational center represents the deep connection between Islamic scholarship and the Crimean Tatar community, serving as a symbol of their educational heritage.
The madrasa, located at coordinates 44.747985, 33.907964, maintains specific visiting hours and requires advance arrangements for guided tours of the premises.
The name Zincirli derives from the large chain suspended over the entrance, which remains a distinguishing feature of this federal cultural heritage site.
