Stari Most (English: Old Bridge) is a reconstruction of a 16th-century
Ottoman bridge in the city of
Mostar in
Bosnia and Herzegovina that crosses the river
Neretva and connects two parts of the city. The Old Bridge stood for 427 years, until it was destroyed on 9 November 1993 by Croat forces during the
Croat–Bosniak War. Subsequently, a project was set in motion to reconstruct it, and the rebuilt bridge opened on 23 July 2004.
