Designed by the world-renowned architect Mimar Sinan, the bridge in Visegrad has withstood the test of time and numerous challenges, enduring to this day.
Constructed on the Drina River between 1571 and 1577 during the era when the Ottoman Empire ruled the region, this bridge with a prayer niche is considered one of Mimar Sinan's most significant legacies in the Balkans.
This historic bridge, which has managed to remain standing through the centuries, also inspired Bosnian writer Ivo Andric's novel "The Bridge on the Drina," which earned him the Nobel Prize.
