Add to ORKG001- A view of the Cifte Minare Medrese. The Cifte Minare Medrese was commissioned by an Ilkhaid-Mongol vizier Şemsettin Güveyni in 1271, after defeating the Seljuks. Only the monumental façade remains, which has a pair (\u27cifte\u27) of minarets rising from its top. It was once a madrasa and included a double-storied courtyard within four iwans, in classical Ilkhanid style. The minarets are covered with banna\u27i work, in which plain bricks are combined with those with glazed ends to form a pattern. - SKhttps://digital.kenyon.edu/baly/1100/thumbnail.jp
