Carinski most, Road bridge in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Carinski Most is a concrete bridge that crosses the Neretva River and joins both sides of Mostar. It allows vehicles and pedestrians to travel across the city while offering views of the river landscape below.
The bridge was constructed between 1916 and 1918 by prisoners of war and was originally called King's Bridge. After it was destroyed during the war, it became the first crossing to be rebuilt in Mostar.
The bridge links two neighborhoods that were separated for years due to conflict, and locals use it daily to move between different parts of the city. For residents, it represents a physical symbol of reconnection and the slow healing of communities divided by recent history.
The bridge is easily accessible on foot and provides direct access to Mostar's central areas. Parking is available nearby, and the river below offers good photo opportunities from various viewpoints.
The bridge bears visible traces of its destruction and rebuilding, with bullet holes and repair marks still apparent today. These scars silently tell the city's story and remind visitors of its turbulent past.
