Eiffel Bridge, Steel footbridge in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The Skenderija Steel Bridge spans across the Miljacka River, featuring metal trusses and connecting both sides of central Sarajevo with pedestrian access.
Built in 1893 during the Austro-Hungarian administration, this bridge replaced an earlier wooden structure constructed by Ottoman governor Skender Pasha.
Local residents attribute the bridge design to Alexandre Gustave Eiffel, though no official documentation confirms this connection to the French engineer.
The bridge underwent complete restoration in 2004 following damage during the Bosnian War and now serves as a central crossing point for pedestrians.
Couples attach locks to the bridge railings, following a tradition practiced at bridges across Europe to symbolize lasting relationships.
