- During the reign of Sultan II. Abdülhamid, an education reform spread the Istanbul-based education system to Rumelia, Anatolia, and the Middle East. The aim was to improve the education of Muslim children and to train loyal civil servants for the Ottoman State. Many schools were opened in this period, including Kayseri Idadi. Established in 1893, Kayseri Idadi witnessed the troubles of the late Ottoman period, the Balkan Wars, and World War I. It was converted to a Sultani during World War I. Due to its proximity to Ankara, it closely followed the Turkish War of Independence. After the losses in the Eskisehir-Kütahya battles, there were discussions about moving the parliament to Kayseri and using the Kayseri Sultani building. While the Turkish army, led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, was preparing for the Battle of Sakarya, Kayseri Sultani students also wanted to participate in this struggle. The story of these high school students who fought in the Sakarya War is an unforgettable example. After the foundation of the Republic, Kayseri Sultani and similar institutions played a significant role in educating the future generations of the new country. Kayseri Sultani, which was also visited by Atatürk, was renamed Kayseri Lisesi with the Republic. Having a considerable impact on Turkey's social, political, and daily life, Kayseri has raised two presidents, numerous artists, business people, and valuable teachers. Kayseri Lisesi, with its architecture, is also one of the important places of Turkey's recent history and is one of the symbols of the city. It is often referred to as simply "Lise" by the people of Kayseri.
