Abstract
The contribution discusses Ottoman prisoners of war of Muslim faith that were baptized in Ljutomer or lived there. During the Great Turkish War 1683–1699, when by far the greatest number of both male and female Ottoman prisoners of war were baptized in Slovenian territory and Habsburg lands in general, the register of births kept by the parish of Ljutomer documents three cases of baptism, and one convert most likely came to Ljutomer after marrying in Sv. Lenart, in the wine-growing hills of Slovenske Gorice. On the other hand, the origin of persons from the Ottoman state cannot be determined based exclusively on family names such as Murat and Pašič. The contribution puts the problem concerning the baptism and integration of Muslims in a broader spatial and temporal context.
