Haydarpaşa is a locality within the Kadıköy and Üsküdar districts on the Asian part of Istanbul, Turkey. Haydarpaşa is named after Ottoman Vizier Haydar Pasha.

Health and education

Marmara University's Faculty of Medicine building

There is/was a Jewish school in Haydarpaşa. Circa the 1920s, due to a decline in the quantity and quality of French education (as laws had changed that required education to be given in a list of languages - Turkish and others protected by the Treaty of Lausanne, on which French was not on), the student population declined from 150 to 50.[6]
