Ada-Kaleh - Bego Mustaffa

Bego Mustaffa - almost certainly the ruler and headman of the fortified Turkish Island of Ada-Kaleh (1895 - 1900). The town is now underwater. Situated on the Danube - submerged in 1970 due to the building of a hydro-electric station. Three kilometres from Orsoza. Known as a free port and smugglers nest. Controlled by Austria-Hungary and therefore free from taxes/customs for many years. Population was 600-1000 inhabitants

EDITORS COMMENTS
Ada-Kaleh: The Sunken Turkish Island and the Reign of Bego Mustaffa (1895-1900) This evocative photograph captures the image of Bego Mustaffa, the ruler and headman of the fortified Turkish island of Ada-Kaleh, nestled on the Danube River. The island, now submerged underwater since 1970, was once a thriving community of approximately 600-1000 inhabitants. Ada-Kaleh, also known as 'Bahariye,' was a free port and a notorious smugglers' nest, providing refuge from the taxation and customs of the Austro-Hungarian Empire that controlled the surrounding areas. Bego Mustaffa, a man of power and influence, ruled over this unique community with a firm hand. The island, situated just three kilometers from Orsova, was strategically located, allowing it to serve as a crucial trading hub along the Danube. The fortified walls of Ada-Kaleh protected its residents from external threats, while the island's proximity to the border with Romania and Bulgaria made it a haven for smugglers. Despite its illicit activities, Ada-Kaleh was a vibrant and culturally rich community. The island's residents were predominantly Turkish and Muslim, and their way of life was shaped by the Danube's rhythms. The photograph of Bego Mustaffa, with his stern expression and traditional attire, serves as a poignant reminder of the island's history and the man who ruled over it during its final years before it was submerged beneath the waters. The construction of a hydro-electric station in 1970 led to the flooding of Ada-Kaleh, and the island and its community were lost to the Danube. Today, the ruins of the once-thriving island lie underwater, a testament to the passage of time and the ever-changing landscape of the Danube River.
