Die „alte Brücke” Stari Most gilt als namensgebendes Bauwerk der Stadt Mostar. Sie überspannt den Neretva-Fluss und verbindet dabei nicht nur zwei Stadtteile. Seit ihrer Erbauung steht das Relikt aus der osmanischen Zeit auch für das Zusammenleben von Christen und Muslimen. | TRT Deutsch

29 years ago, the Mostar Bridge, also known as Stari Most, was destroyed by a barrage of shelling from Croat forces during the Bosnian civil war. Originally built in 1566 by the Ottoman Empire, the bridge was rebuilt in 2004 in collaboration with the Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA), UNESCO, the World Bank and IRCICA. The bridge, which linked the Muslim and Christian parts of the city of Mostar, has stood as a symbol of brotherhood between different groups in the Balkans. | TRT
