The Museum of the Old Bridge in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, is dedicated to the historic and cultural significance of the Stari Most (Old Bridge), an iconic 16th-century Ottoman bridge that spans the Neretva River. The museum is housed in the Tara Tower, one of the fortified towers at either end of the bridge, and it offers a comprehensive look at the bridge's history, including its original construction, destruction during the Bosnian War in 1993, and subsequent reconstruction and reopening in 2004. Visitors can explore archaeological findings, historical documents, and multimedia exhibits that provide insight into the architectural and cultural heritage of Mostar and its famous bridge.
