Information about Museum of Wooden and Stone Carving
The Ince Minareli Medrese (Slender Minaret School) lost its minaret to its name when it was struck by lightning in 1905. Built in 1260 for the Seljuk vizier Sahip Ata, the design features richly carved decor on the portal. The building is now a museum with a large collection of wood and stone sculptures from the Seljuk period that include animal reliefs (although depictions of animals and humans are prohibited under Islamic law) from the ancient city walls.
