(Redirected from Sifaiye Medresesi)'Sifaiye Medresesi' is a
medrese built in 1217 in
Sivas,
Turkey. It bears typical
Seljuk features and was built by the
Anatolian Seljuk Sultan Kaykaus I, who was known for his fondness for the city of Sivas where he spent the large part of his period of reign.
The complex consists of a Darüşşifa (''Dâr al-Shifâ, literally "house of health", a
medical center, a
hospital'') and the medrese where medicinal studies were also taught. The complex is also alternatively called under the sultan Izeddin Keykavus I's name whose tomb is located within the compound.
