Al-Sultaniyah Madrasa (Arabic: الْمَدْرَسَة السُّلْطَانِيَّة, romanized: al-Madrasa as-Sulṭānīyah), is a madrasah complex located across from the Citadel entrance in the Ancient city of Aleppo, Syria. It is a religious, educational and funerary complex. It contains the tomb of sultan Malik al-Zaher the son of Ayyubid Sultan Saladin. However, satellite pictures show it has been bombed out of existence.
