The Ibrahim Bey Imaret dates from 1433. It was a continuation of the Seljuk style, it is in the tradition of the Karatay Medrese and the Ince Minare Medrese in Konya. The inner court is covered. To the right side of the mosque there is the türbe of the founder, emir Ibrahim Bey. In front of the mosque stands the Ibrahim Bey Çeşmesi, also built in Seljuk style.

The medrese/mosque has the ground plan of a Seljuk medrese (school) with a covered inner yard. Opposite to the entrance, there is a slightly elevated, large iwan; this is (strictly spoken) the ‘mescit’ (= small mosque).
The iwan is flanked by two equally large, domed rooms. Around the inner yard, which is covered by a large and high dome, lie six smaller rooms and a passage leading to a flight of stairs (to the five rooms on the second floor).
