Kosinj Bridge

The Kosinj Bridge spans 70 meters across the Lika River, featuring stone construction with symmetrical openings in its arches to reduce wave impact.

Construction of the bridge began in 1929 under architect Milivoj Frković's design, and the structure opened to the public in 1936.

The bridge incorporates traditional Croatian stone building techniques, demonstrating regional engineering methods from the early twentieth century.

At 5.5 meters wide, the bridge connects Gornji and Donji Kosinj villages while accommodating both pedestrian traffic and light vehicles.

The bridge's piers create circular patterns in the water beneath, resulting from specialized engineering designed to prevent erosion damage.
