Köşkmedrese's sketch and plan (1931)
Köşkmedrese is a khanqah located on Mount Köşk to the southeast of the city of Kayseri in central Turkey. According to the inscriptions on the building that later ceased to exist, it was built by Eretna in memory of his consort Suli Pasha in 1339. Although originally a khanqah, it later came to be known and used as a madrasa. Köşkmedrese is the burial site for Eretna, his consort Suli Pasha, his son and successor Ghiyāth al-Dīn Muḥammad I, and grandson and the later successor ʿAlāʾ al-Dīn 'Ali.[1]
