The Siege of Kulaca Hisar or Raid of Kulaca Hisar was a battle fought between Byzantium and the Turkish forces under the command of Osman Bey in 1285.[1][2]
Siege
Osman Bey, upon the death of Bayhoca, son of his brother Savcı Bey, in the Battle of Mount Armenia, conquered Kulaca Hisar Castle, which is a few leagues away from İnegöl and located on the outskirts of Emirdağ. As a result of a night raid with a force of 300 people, the castle was captured by the Turks. This is the first castle conquest in the history of the Ottoman Empire.[3] Since the Christian people of Kulaca Hisar accepted the rule of Osman Bey, the people there were not harmed.[4]
