Amasra Lighthouse

Amasra Lighthouse, one of the oldest lighthouses in the Black Sea, was built in 1863. It is located 77 meters above sea level in a sheltered position against the raging waves and strong winds of the Black Sea. Right next to the lighthouse, adjacent to the lodging building where the lighthouse keeper lives, the three-meter tower fulfills its function completely despite its short stature thanks to its high position.

Ahmet Demirci, the fourth generation to work at Amasra Lighthouseproudly continues the profession he inherited. The lens of the lantern works with a mechanism called "devvar and winding". A weight, which is pulled up by winding it up, allows the lens to rotate as it floats downwards, so the system has to be rewound several times during the night.

The lighthouse, which used to be lit by burning gas, has been electrified since the 1980s. Nevertheless, in case of possible power cuts, it can continue to serve by burning gas in the traditional way. At Earth coordinates 41°45′ North, 32°23′ East. Amasra Lighthouse, which can be seen from 20 nautical miles away, guides sailors approaching from the East, West or North by flashing every 10 seconds.

Amasra Lighthouse is located on Boztepe Island. To the east of the island lies Rabbit Island, while from the western slopes you can watch the sunset in all its glory. If you are lucky, you can also witness the fascinating passage of dolphin pods. In addition to being a safe guide for sailors, this spot, where the Amasra Lighthouse is located, continues to attract visitors as one of the most beautiful viewing terraces in Amasra.

The Narthex (First Community) section and the Ambon (Apsis) projection of the building, which has all the structural features of the period, were added to the space later. In 1887, the cradle vault roof of the mosque, which is 19×11 m in size, which covered the place except for its four walls and was in danger of collapsing in places, was removed, and a wooden ceiling and roof were made instead, and a major repair was made.

Olympic Athlete Aemilianus from Amasra!

A statue of an athlete who won a medal in the Olympics in 155 AD was found on a tombstone in Amasra.

“In his thirtieth year, my father had named me Aemilianus. Coming from a noble family, Geminos was my nanny and governess. With a mystical belief, I participated in the festivities celebrated by burning with fire for the god Euios. I was a master in wrestling, spear throwing, pancreas, discus throw, running, jumping and all rhythmic ball games. My trainer was the one who prepared me for success in all these sports. In satyr, I prevailed over Cyzicus and Pergamon, and I personally carried the wreath of Cyzicus. However, the jealous Moira withheld the Pergamon Wreath from me. And my body was destroyed by death in the province of Dor. My teacher Geminoz took my bones to Amastris and left them for eternity in a stone chest decorated with wreaths…”

Edhem Agha Mansion

Edhem Ağa Mansion Unique Architectural Building

It is the most beautiful mansion built in Amasra until the end of the 19th century. This mansion, inspired by Montenegrin prince Nikola's mansion in Kotor, was completed in 1890. It is in the local empire style and was built by craftsmen from Bulaklı.

Edhem Ağa (death 1921), the miner who came to Amasra from Karadağ, is the first Muslim capitalist to open a coal mine in the village of Tarlaağzı in 1864.
After making quite a fortune…

Edhem Ağa Mansion (1889)

Edhem Ağa (died 1921), the miner who came to Amasra from Karadağ, is the first Muslim capitalist to open a coal mine in the village of Tarlaağzı in 1864.
After making quite a fortune…he commissioned his brother-in-law İbrahim Ağa (died: 1909) as the building manager to have the house he designed for his family built, and according to the legend, he gave himself a fez full of golden Ottoman liras.

While İbrahim Ağa went to Istanbul in 1886 and had sketches drawn according to his brother-in-law's suggestions, he also gave the architect a description of the summer mansion in Nikola Kotar (Dalmatia), the prince of Montenegro. When the size and design were determined, Greek and Turkish masters were brought from the Bulak Village of Safranbolu; on the other hand, pine timbers were cut and stones and lime were procured in the water sawmills on the shore of Filyos; The masters of Bulak laid the foundation for the land that Edhem Ağan bought on the shore of the small harbor in 1887 and completed the three-storey building in two years.

The stone-arched outer door of the house, which is a unique structure in the style called Turkish Empiric, leads to the front stony, and from there to the entrance floor through the low-arched sentence door. On this floor, there is a large hall called “Taşlık”, a kitchen, a hammam and a dining room. Two masonry shops have been added to the road front of the ground floor, the top of which is the terrace for the middle floor. There is an L-shaped sofa, four rooms, toilet and ablution sections on the middle floor and the upper floor, which can be reached by wooden stairs. There is access to the terrace overlooking the harbor from the middle floor sofa and to the marble balcony from the upper floor sofa. The sides of the terrace and balcony doors are enriched with marble columns, the balcony is also enriched with marble pediments, and the spaces between floors are enriched with marble moldings. Since those on the east side of the floor rooms are designed for winter, there are stone fireplaces, built-in wardrobes with bathrooms, and there are windows in the rooms facing west.

The interior partition walls of the building, which has masonry walls from the outside, are filled with wood and lime plaster, the floors and ceilings and the built-in wall cabinets are pine. The Boat ceilings of the sofa and rooms are flat, but the side friezes are plainly embroidered. The lower floor windows are flat, the middle and upper floor windows are arched. While the eaves were wooden in the similar style urban structures built in the same period, Emin İbrahim Ağa said, “The building collapses from the eaves!” Taking into account the proverb, he ensured that the main walls were protected with monolithic and brittle eaves exhibition stones, each weighing 130 kg.

The roof of the building is in the form of an umbrella and the entire weight of the roof is attached to the wooden column with a diameter of 30 cm in the middle with throw battens. This load-bearing column is not pressed against the structure and the roof load is suspended. The building, which was partially damaged in the 1968 earthquake, was repaired and its walls were reinforced by İbrahim Ağa's son Celil Tamer and Ethem Ağa's grandson Agah Simberk, based on the technical report and preserving its original structure.

Although Edhem Ağa house, which is a registered old work, has been preserved in its original form, its back garden with water well and pump and its large courtyard on the east façade have been expropriated by the Municipality in 1974, and since it has been made a Market Place, it has lost its natural environment. Family life in Edhem Ağa House has continued from generation to generation for more than a century. In the period of 1889-1921, Edhem Ağa and his wife Dilber Güliye Hanım and their children; Between 1921-1942, Edhem Ağa's son Hakkı Bey (Özkömür) and his wife Seniye and their daughters; After 1942, the family and descendants of Edhem Ağa's daughter Nebile Hanım (Simberk) and his wife Süleyman Bey resided.

Archaeological Excavations Continue in Amasra

Amasra's 3 thousand years of history is under the fields and buildings!

3 thousand years of history gushes from Amasra's bedesten area and historical city center.

The works carried out by the Amasra Museum in Amasra, which contains works from the Hellenistic period, the Ionian, Roman, Byzantine and Genoese periods, which are known to have been founded in the 300th BC, continue.

The beginning of the Hellenic Period is often marked with the date of death of Alexander the Great. 323 BC is taken as . The end of the period was when the Greek Peninsula was occupied by the Roman Republic. 146 BC It is considered. Some historians accept 31-30 BC as the end of the Period, when the Ptolemaic Dynasty, the last remaining state from the empire of Alexander the Great, was defeated and destroyed in the Battle of Actium (Green P).

Amasra Museum Director Aydın said, “Amasra is an ancient city, like the ancient Greek and Roman cities, and a provincial center of those periods. “Protecting and protecting the 40 percent of the ancient city that remains under agricultural areas and transferring it to future generations in a healthy way is an issue of great importance in terms of humanity's cultural history and cultural heritage.” "We aim to unearth this ancient city in the district where we started scientific rescue excavations," he said.

Skylife Amasra Article – 4 Seasons Must See This Beauty…

General View from Ahatlar Village

 

If a person knew where to draw deep lines in his life; He would engrave his first visit there, the first time he met those cities, as an indelible image in his memory.

It was an autumn night when the stars were lined up in the sky like letters in poems.

After Bartın, it was as if we had ridden on the back of a snake and descended from the mountains.

The darkness did not show the face of the sea. Then I suddenly thought I saw a ship with all its lights on.

The town looked like a long ship waiting in the harbor. When the sound of waves woke me up the next morning, I thought I was a passenger on that ship.

I know that the princess Amastris, who gave her name to Amasra and followed the routes of maritime trade; Fatih Sultan Mehmet, who landed the ships to the Golden Horn with sledges and took Istanbul; Hüseyin Çoban, who recreated the Golden Hind, the ship of the once famous sailor Drake, in his production house in Çakraz; Nezahat teacher, who hides Amasra like a baby dolphin in her wavy hair; Necdet Sakaoğlu, who pulled the town's past from the deep waters of history like a mussel collector, also saw that ship.

They saw that Amasra became a passion for them too...

Amasra has become very famous since the day I first saw her. Travel magazines, tourism supplements of newspapers, movie stills and TV series became a must. Enthusiasts of easy discoveries filled the town like a hill, just as the inner part of the castle was filled with houses and damaged its soul many years ago...

I, on the other hand, watched Amasra when the crowds had receded or from places far away from them.

In the summer, especially on weekends, the town has thousands of guests. Beaches, fish restaurants, and Çekiciler Bazaar are packed.

I loved the rains in Amasra, the dolphin flocks passing by the Rabbit Island, the lilies loaded with the spring raindrops in Boztepe...

Those lilies that the people of Amasra call sesame. Although Sakaoğlu says that this word is derived from “Sesami, Sesam or Sesa”; The people believe that the ancient name of the town, Sesamos, got its name from these wild flowers.

Starting today, the fog will descend on the houses and trees like a cotton quilt in the early hours of the morning. Lizards resting in Kuşkayası will be drawn, blackberries and mushrooms will be collected. Summer restaurants will gradually close their shutters. The little optimists of the Sailing Club will make their way to their school. Because the season of strong winds and rain reminiscent of Amastris' tears will begin. No one should be angry with them, would the Black Sea be so green if they were not?

After the autumn waves rising over the breakwater, the sound of the wings of the tired wild swans, battered by the storm, will be added to the sound of the Black Sea. They will land in Little Harbor with the snow and stay there for a long time. History buff university students passing through the Genoese Gate will draw the Genoa crests on their notebooks. Fishing boats will come back with flocks of seagulls, picking up their nets.

Then spring will come back to Amasra. The cold will break. The flowers that Zülfiye Hanım, who lives in Kaleiçi, planted in shoes, teapots and whatever she finds, will grow. The boats will be painted and overhauled.

Lovers will reach the tip of Kefaser Hill by walking from the edge of a cliff and hold hands and watch the Little Port, which stands like a green bowl, and its necklace, Kemere Bridge.

I think he should see Amasra in all four seasons. Short summer days when the sea approaches the beach like a docile child should not be enough for you. In the spring, when the Bartın-Amasra road turns into a holiday place with trees dressed in wedding dresses and is adorned with honeybees, hyacinths and lilies; in autumn, when the sun sets in the palm of Little Harbor, when she wears her blond like a wet crown on her head; And of course, go in the winter, when you will witness his wild, stubborn, rebellious face. But no matter what season you are there, you should visit Amasra street by street and love it street by street. Before returning, you should once again eat fish with salad in one of the restaurants on the shore at sunset.

Just be careful with your fingers! The flavor of the fish can get on your fingers!

Tekke Tepe Tomb

This hillock, which is an ancient island, was a prayer and wishing point in the middle of the Old Amasra cemetery. Like the "Hıdırlık" in other cities, Amasra's sanctuary has a Nakşibendi dervish lodge here, and there are cemeteries of sheikhs and dervishes around it.

The trustees and sheiks of the lodge foundation were from the Alemdaroğulları family from father to son. Hafız Mustafa, son of one of the last sheikhs, Yahya Edendi (19th century, 2nd yacht), settled in the Nakşibendi Tekke in Sultanahmet after an adventurous youth passing through the ships, and became the "Knotty Father" of Istanbulites for fifty years, in his turban, to unite the lovers, He tied knots in his belt, clothes, and wrists. The manuscript “Kemalname-i Kürümlü Baba” about the knotted father book is in the Süleymaniye Library.

This area was taken under protection by Amasra Municipality in 2015, but the historical cemetery areas around it were opened for development and surrounded by residences.

Comments on Amasra and Fish Restaurant Prices

Sedat Colonel Beware the fish restaurants are ripping off foreigners

Kezban Kaya Fish restaurants are ripping off not only foreigners but also their own nation. Eat the same thing at 10 restaurants, you pay a separate bill for each one. We were ripped off twice this year and I forbade the money they took. I can't even think of foreign tourists. If he objects, he cannot, and if he makes it haram, he cannot. Those who think that they serve in this way... They do not. Please make up their minds as soon as possible.

Ibrahim Gokceoglu YOU ARE VERY RIGHT... WE HAVE TO BARGAIN... THEY MUST ATTRACT THE FISH TO EATABLE PRICES... THERE IS NO BUSINESS ETHICS.. THE MUNICIPALITY DOES NOT MEET WITH THE PRICES.. CHAMBERS OF CRAFTSMANSHIP IF THERE ARE FISHERMAN TRADES UNIONS, THEY CAN ADJUST THE PRICES.

Kezban Kaya They really need to make up their minds as soon as possible. People should go and eat fish in fish restaurants not once, but every day.

Ersin Işıklı That's what it is to harass the people under the name of free market economy, by the way, I'm from Amasra, I couldn't be indifferent to your article.

Kezban Kaya It's nice to be sensitive, but we can't change much, unfortunately.

Kanuni Melih Tuylu Mr. Keban Kaya: Let's ask this question together: Is there a municipality in Amasra? If so, why not check? because he is back to AKP and everything is permissible to be elected. I have been going to amasraya since 1968, first in the summer, and for the last 25 years in the winter and summer. You wrote well, but neither the villagers nor the shopkeepers in the bazaar correct themselves. Let's first question the municipality. I send my greetings and respects.

Good morning Karatoprak I'm sorry, but 5-10 years ago, the municipality was connected to the mhp, it was expensive at that time. It had nothing to do with AP.

Kanuni Melih Tuylu no control, gentleman control.

Ibrahim Gokceoglu LAWYER… MUNICIPALITIES DO NOT REGULATORY FISH PRICES..IF THERE IS A FISHERMAN’S ROOM, THEY DETERMINATE THE NECESSARY PRICES..THIS BUSINESS IS DEPENDING ON THE BUSINESS ETHICS… SUGGESTLY AMASRA CUSTOMS ARE SELLING VERY EXPENSIVELY IN HISLAND.ISTANBUL..

Demet Victory Amasra is a complete pile of place, the one who goes very right says I won't go again. We paid 200tl for the 90tl account. Well, the best thing is to go to a foreign place.

Kezban Kaya Look, I live in Germany. I come every summer and stay at least 6 weeks. I want to go twice a week and eat my fish and salad. But believe me, every person from Germany goes once, pays an exorbitant price and does not go again. If you want to give a price. A pan mixed horse mackerel whiting. salad, two cokes. We paid 140 TL. Is it normal? If it's normal, I don't say anything anymore

Ciciler Street (Cikrikcilar Bazaar)

Wood carving, which has been going on for thousands of years, is still continuing despite the decline in Amasra's historical tow truck bazaar. Wood carving, which has survived from the Phoenician period to the present day, opens a door of bread for the local people thanks to the rich forests of the Black Sea.
