Group size: min. 2 - max. 8 people

The historic town of Mostar,

spanning a deep valley of the

Neretva River, developed in the

15th and 16th centuries as an

Ottoman frontier town and during

the Austro-Hungarian period in the

19th and 20th centuries. Mostar has

long been known for its old Turkish

houses and Old Bridge, Stari Most,

after which it is named. In the 1990s

conflict, however, most of the

historic town and the Old Bridge,

designed by the renowned architect

Sinan, was destroyed. The Old

Bridge was recently rebuilt and

many of the edifices in the Old

Town have been restored or rebuilt

with the contribution of an

international scientific committee

established by UNESCO.
