[1] The madrasa building is in Eğirdir, an ilçe (district) of Isparta Province.

The commissioner of the madrasa was Dündar Bey of Hamidoğlu Anatolian beylik.

Just like other beyliks of the era, he emerged during the last phase of Seljuks of Anatolia.

The capital of his beylik was Eğirdir, now a resort town, then an important city.

Although Dündar was later killed by the Mongols, his sons managed to continue the beylik up until the Ottoman conquest in 1391.
