Sırçalı Madrasah, Religious educational museum in Sahibata Mahallesi, Turkey

The Sırçalı Madrasah exhibits decorative brickwork and stone carvings across its structure, demonstrating the architectural methods of religious educational buildings in Konya.

Built in 1242 during the reign of Seljuk sultan Kaykaus II, the madrasah functioned as an important center for teaching Islamic sciences and Sharia law.

The structure contains multiple chambers that showcase the traditional methods of religious education during the Seljuk period through exhibits and artifacts.

The museum opens its doors to visitors throughout the week, with parking facilities and public transportation stops located within walking distance.

The building maintains its educational purpose through its transformation from a religious school into a museum that documents the history of Islamic education.
