About Grave of Ajvaz Dede, Prusac

Ajvaz Dede was a Sufi dervish who came to Prusac, then called Akhisar, with the Ottoman armies in 1463. Tradition says that during a long drought he found a spring on the nearby mountain blocked by a great rock, and prayed for forty days until he saw in a dream two white rams strike the rock and split it. When he woke the rock was split in two, and water could be carried down to the village in wooden pipes. The split rock, Ajvatovica, became the site of the largest traditional Muslim gathering in Europe, held each summer with processions on horseback and communal prayers. Ajvaz Dede's turbe stands in Prusac itself, and visitors to Ajvatovica come here for ziyara. The town also has an old clock tower, fortress ruins and the memory of the scholar Hasan Kafi Pruščak.
