Adži-paša's bridge

Adži-paša's bridge is a stone structure crossing the Ribnica River with multiple arches built from heavy stone blocks near where it meets the Morača River. The construction uses fitted stonework that is typical of the period when it was built.

The structure was originally built during Roman times and later underwent major restoration in the 18th century under the direction of Adži-paša Osmanagić. This renovation made it a key symbol of urban development under Ottoman rule.

The bridge takes its name from an 18th-century local leader and shows how Ottoman rulers shaped the city. When you visit, you can see how important this crossing was for connecting different parts of town.

You can reach the bridge by walking along Spasa Nikolića street in central Podgorica, and it sits near other historical sites worth exploring. Wear comfortable shoes since the area invites you to wander and see the surroundings.

This crossing is the oldest surviving river bridge in the city and has kept its basic form across all the centuries. This continuity makes it a rare witness to the original construction that remains visible today.
