Madrasah of Kepeççi Sinan

The Madrasah of Kepeççi Sinan was built in 1545 on the construction block between Kepeççi Madrasah Street and Kepeççi Sabunhanesi Street in the Surici district of Istanbul, Suleymaniye Demirtas. This building was constructed by Kepeççi Hoca Sinan Efendi, a renowned scholar during the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent. The architect of the madrasah was Mimar Sinan, who was the chief architect of that era. In the garden of this madrasah lies the tomb of the famous Ottoman professor Seyit Ali Efendi, making this place even more significant for the region's history and culture.
