About

Bakir-beg Tuzlić - Bosnian landowner and politician. Bakir-beg Tuzlić served as vice-president of the first Bosniak party MNO (Muslim National Organization). According to folklore, out of great respect, immediately after the death of Hasan Kaimija Zrinović, the people erected a small tomb for him on the right side of the Zvornik - Kula Grad road. Šemsi-beg Tuzlić expanded it, and Bakir-beg had additional work done on the roof. Bakir-beg Tuzlić died in 1910 and was buried in the harem of the Jalska Mosque in Tuzla.
