Old Bridge – Guide to Bosnia and Herzegovina

No comments for Stary MostMostar, Bridges, UNESCO Elena Arsenievich

Once the Old Bridge was called the New Bridge, and this continued for the first hundred years. Officially at that time it was called the Suleiman Bridge, because it was built by order of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. As time went on, the adjective “new” did not really fit the century-old building, they began to call it the Big Bridge, and when other bridges appeared over the Neretva, the name Old Bridge appeared. nine0007

For Mostar, the Old Bridge is the meaning, symbol and core of city life. The city began from here, from these two points on the banks of the Neretva, between which it was required to draw a straight line.

Best views

From the south the bridge is best viewed from the mouth of the river Radoboli. Also a good view from the Luchsky bridge.
From the northeast side, an excellent view opens from the mosque of Koski Mehmed Pasha. Unfortunately, you will have to pay for the pleasure of making good shots – you can go to the observation deck only with a ticket to the mosque (6 KM, about 3 euros). nine0017 No worse than the terrace of the Teatar restaurant (theater) on the right bank of the river, it can be reached from Tabkhana. Here you can enjoy the views with a cup of coffee.

Background

Towers first appeared – a century before the Old Bridge, in the middle of the 15th century. Between them they stretched that very straight line – a rope for a ferry crossing. The ferry on the wayward Neretva was a risky undertaking, the bridge was urgently needed.

But the stone bridge was still far away. The first bridge between the towers was suspended, made of wooden boards and iron chains. It swayed from so that the travelers died from fear. But for travelers – what is it, an accidental attraction on a long journey, but the residents of Mostar had a hard time. The city developed evenly on both sides of the river, business required the presence both there and there, several times a day – the most severe stress, no health would be enough. nine0007 Old bridge in Mostar

In addition, the bridge was dilapidated, and using it became not only scary, but also really dangerous. Mostarians sent a request for a new bridge to Sultan Suleiman.

At that time, Mostar had long been one of the cities of the Ottoman Empire. And an empire cannot function successfully without good roads and, accordingly, bridges. With the arrival of the Turks in Bosnia and Herzegovina, several dozen bridges were built in a short period. Two of them are included in the list of world cultural heritage, and several more are monuments of national importance. nine0007 The slope is serious, the surface is slippery, steps-ribs are indispensable

Plumbing

Mostar stands on the full-flowing Neretva River, but its banks are high and rocky, try to apply water for household needs, not to mention gardens and orchards. In the right-bank part of Mostar, the clean river Radobol flows, which solved the problems of water supply in this part of the city. In the 16th century, the left bank was also supplied with water from Radobol. The water pipeline passed over the bridge, and the famous traveler Evliya Chelebia, surprised by what he saw, wrote: “This is a bridge over which and under which water flows. ” nine0007

Construction

But we digress. Sultan Suleiman granted the request of the Mostar people and sent to Mostar a young architect Khairuddin, a student of the famous Sinan. Hadji Mehmed-beg Karadzhoz was appointed the organizer of the work on the part of the local authorities (he was also responsible for the construction of the most majestic of Mostar mosques).

Work began in 1557 and was completed in 1566. It took Khairuddin nine years to solve an extremely non-trivial engineering problem. nine0007 Old Bridge in Mostar

Classical bridge building technology of that time – a few strong pillars on which no less powerful vaults rest. But it was impossible to install a bridge support in the deep, impetuous and prone to destructive floods of the Neretva. It remained to lean on the rocky shores, but in this case the distance between the supports was almost thirty meters, no one had built arches of this size before Khairuddin.

Admiration

Once upon a time, a sign was built into the bridge with the text: “This bridge is like a rainbow vault; Is there anyone like him in this world, my God!” nine0007 Old bridge and Halebija tower, view from the south

Structure

All the technical details of the construction of the Mostar bridge have not yet been clarified. For example, how were the scaffoldings set up for it? How have these scaffolds withstood years of construction?

But the main constructive aspects are already known to the researchers. First, a set of 111 rows of stone blocks was laid out. The blocks were connected with iron wedges. Further, stiffening ribs were made on the vault – in the center and on the sides. After that, the outer walls were erected, covered with crushed stone to the desired height, and paved on top. nine0007 Old Bridge in Mostar

The parapet of the bridge is rather low, in those days the concept of safety was not very strict, the architect took advantage of this to get the silhouette as thin as possible. At first, the Mostar people did not even dare to step on the bridge, it seemed so thin and fragile to them. Urban legends say that Khairuddin spent three days and three nights under the bridge as proof of its reliability.

Iron fence

There is no historical information about when and by whom the iron fence was installed on the bridge. The people created a legend about this fence.
Among the Mostar boys, it was considered a special courage to walk along the parapet of the Old Bridge from one side to the other. One careless step – and the daredevil flies into the water. If he can swim, maybe he will get out of the Neretvan rapids. But not everyone was lucky.
One young apprentice was bringing lunch to his master from a tavern on the other side of the river. It was boring on the bridge, I climbed the fence, took a few steps, outweighed the pot with dinner … I didn’t swim out. And he was his mother’s only son. The inconsolable mother sold everything that was in her house, and ordered the bridge’s iron fence from the Mostar blacksmiths, so that even in her thoughts it was not possible to walk along the parapet. Therefore, the bars go around the parapet on both sides. nine0007

From the top of the bridge to the bottom, a height difference of three meters is a very significant slope. I don’t know how people moved along the bridge in the old days, but during the reconstruction, transverse ribs were added throughout the entire canvas, without them it would not have been a bridge, but an attraction for the delight of tourists of all ages. Well, it’s very slippery.

We would very much like to tell not only about the construction of the bridge, but also about its future life – after all, it stood in the center of Mostar for more than four centuries, it had to see a lot. But, contrary to our expectations, information about any special events on the bridge and near it has not been preserved, so, ordinary everyday city life, of course, with its dramas, but not of the scale to be recorded by historians. nine0007 Old bridge and seals

Destruction and restoration

The real drama, or rather, tragedy in the life of the bridge played out in the last decade of the 20th century. In the military conflict of the nineties, the bridge was repeatedly shelled until the vault collapsed into the water. It happened on November 9, 1993.

Already in 1997, two years after the end of the war, they began to think about the restoration of the bridge. The fragments were removed from the Neretva and laid out on a plateau on the shore. At first, there was an idea to use the original material of the bridge for construction, but the blocks were significantly damaged, and besides, there were not enough of them, the idea had to be abandoned. nine0007

For months, specialists measured each block in order to make an exact copy of it. The stone for the bridge was quarried, if possible, from the same quarries as in the 16th century. Where possible, ancient technologies and manual stone processing were used.

In the spring of 2004, the bridge was completed, and on June 23 of the same year it was inaugurated. In 2005, the bridge and the architectural complex adjacent to it were taken under the protection of UNESCO.
