Old Bridge Area of the Old City of Mostar
The historic city of Mostar, straddling a deep valley in the Neretva River, developed as an Ottoman frontier town in the 15th and 16th centuries and under the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 19th and 20th centuries. Mostar has long been known for its old Turkish houses and the Old Bridge, Stari Most, after which it was named. However, during the conflict of the 1990s, large parts of the historic city and the Old Bridge, designed by the famous architect Sinan, were destroyed. The Old Bridge was recently rebuilt with the help of an international scientific committee set up by UNESCO, and many buildings in the Old Town have been restored or rebuilt. The Old Bridge area features pre-Ottoman, East Ottoman, Mediterranean and Western European architectural features and is an outstanding example of a multicultural urban settlement. The rebuilt Old Bridge and Old Town Mostar are symbols of reconciliation, international cooperation and the coexistence of different cultural, ethnic and religious communities.
