Former Commanders of Turkish History

Acting as a natural bridge between Asia and Europe, almost every corner of Anatolia has a lively and rich history since ancient times due to its geopolitical location. It is understood from the ancient ruins that the city of İçköy, Yaylacık and Manişar were established in the area called Hittites, where the Phrygians who came from the Balkans after 1200 BC, dominated the region since ancient times. The Cimmerians, who came from the Caucasus from the east, put an end to the Phrygian rule of 600 years in the region. The Lydians from the west put an end to the Kimmerians' rule of about 1 century. In the following centuries, Persians from the east and Macedonians under the command of Alexander the Great came to the region, respectively. When the Alexander empire broke up, Bitinians who were part of this empire lived in the region for many years. Later, the region, which came under the reign of the Roman Empire, joined Eastern Rome, or Byzantine rule after 395. It is known that Bozüyük's name was lamunia in these years. Between 600-720, the region became the gateway of the Arab Umayyad forces who came to take Istanbul. After the Seljuk Turks who came from the east in 1071 were defeated by the Byzantine Empire as a result of the Battle of Manzikert, Bozüyük and its environs came under the sovereignty of the Seljuk Turks. After that, the region changed hands frequently. In the following years (11th century AD and later), the region changed hands between Christians and Muslims from time to time in the Crusades, especially in the First Crusade. The most recent historical event in this regard is the Dorylaion war between the Crusader commander Godefdoit in 1097 near Eskişehir and Kılıçarslan, the Seljuk Ruler. With the Seljuks dominating Anatolia, Bozüyük was a Karye (village) of the end of Sultanönü. Seljuk ruler II. Gıyaseddin Mesud's second menus sent to Osman in 1289, he entered Ottoman rule in Bozüyük since he accepted the region from Eskişehir to Yenişehir as a sanjak and gave it to Osman. Before 1525, today's Bozüyük village had Çayköy, Arikler, İçköy and Atkaydı villages. In the Ottoman state, he also imposed the feeding of armies fighting on the borders and armies going to the front along the road. For this purpose, the military path to be followed in the movement of the army, the points to rest for a short time were determined and the amount of time that the army would use as food and feed was determined in these places and women were asked to provide them. When the news that the army under the command of Kasım Pasha, which will be on the campaign of Kanuni Sultan Süleyman, will stay in Bozüyük, the supplies needed by the army are met. Kasım Pasha is very pleased with these aids. "If I win the war and return, I will have a mosque built in the middle of these four villages." he says. The commander, who returned with the victory from the war, kept his word and built the mosque and complex (additions such as inn, Turkish bath, refectory, school of elementary school) between 1525 and 1528. With the construction of the mosque and complex, these four villages gather together at the place where the present Kasımpaşa District is located, forming today's BOZÜYÜK. Bozüyük has been the wife of the Sultanönü banner for many years. Population increased after a large part of the Turks who escaped from the Balkans and migrated to Anatolia after the 1877 - 1878 Ottoman - Russian wars, known as the 93 War, were settled in Bozüyük. There is an interesting story of Bozüyük being submerged. According to the rumors, the elders of Bozüyük plan to abduct the İnönü subdistrict by agreeing to make it here. The official office and house of the manager, where he was previously seated, are prepared. One night late, they go to İnönü by horse-drawn cars and kidnap the parish director and bring them to Bozüyük. The people of İnönü, who realize that the manager has been kidnapped the next day, report the situation to the authorities. the authorities are very surprised at this situation. Because such an event has not been heard or seen until then.

There are statues reminiscent of a historical place, and information was given in front of each statue. Beautiful place
