History
The madrasa has the characteristics of the Early Ottoman Period with a 17 × 17 m inner courtyard with an arcade, a single iwan, and sixteen cells. The main walls are built in an alternating pattern with three rows of bricks and one row of stones, as in early Bursa structures. The eaves end with a three-row sawtooth brick cornice.
