Stari Most

Bridge in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Stari Most, also known as Mostar Bridge, is a rebuilt 16th-century Ottoman bridge in the city of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It crosses the river Neretva and connects the two parts of the city, which is named after the bridge keepers (mostari) who guarded the Stari Most during the Ottoman era. The bridge collapsed on 9 November 1993 due to shelling during the Croat-Bosniak War as part of deliberate attacks on cultural heritage sites by the Croatian Defence Council (HVO). Subsequently, the bridge was reconstructed, and it re-opened on 23 July 2004.
