The Old Bridge - a photo on Flickriver

The Old Bridge

            Mostar is a city in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The city was the most heavily bombed of any Bosnian city during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina following the breakup of Yugoslavia. At the beginning of the war, air strikes destroyed many important buildings and structures, including the cultural and spiritual icon: the Old Bridge (Stari Most), which is a   UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Mostar has been most famous for this beautiful historic Ottoman-style bridge, which spanned the Neretva river in what is considered the historic centre of the city. Through combined efforts with the international community, rebuilding of the Old Bridge was completed in 2004, almost 11 years after its destruction, using some of its original stones recovered from the Neretva river.

Much of the city has been rebuilt, particularly the area within and around the old town. However, many visible signs of Mostar's troubled history in the 1990s remain.
