About Çifte Madrasah

Çifte Medrese, also known as the Gevher Nesibe Medical Complex (Turkish: Gevher Nesibe Şifahanesi ve Tıp Medresesi) is a 13th-century medical and educational complex located in Kayseri, Turkey. It is considered one of the earliest examples of medical schools in the Islamic world, and possibly the first of its kind in Anatolia combining a hospital (şifahane) with a medical madrasa (tıp medresesi).

Çifte Medrese, one of the Anatolian Seljuk madrasahs, was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Tentative List in 2014.
