Our Airbnb place is just two blocks west from the bridge. It's just off the sebilj fountain area. Came back from yellow bastion and got beautiful sunset photos of/from the bridge. The little intro of the assassin at the north end of the bridge is adequate but could be missed if you are not prepared.

Has history behind it, but the bridge itself is definitely one of the least impressive I saw while in Bosnia, a country with so many amazing bridges. They don't even have any impressive markers to showcase the history the bridge has, just a couple rather basic inscriptions. I would still walk there to check it out, it's adjacent to the Old Town pretty much.

The fatefull place where Archduke Franz Ferdinand was asassinated, trigering the first world war, and the colapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire😢 Now we are all living in our miserable, corupt, incapable and lazy but "independent" countrys....

Very historical. I took a walking tour and was shown the exact place where the assassination took place.

Historic place, you can get cool photos and take a walk around river

Beautiful, historical, great view from the bridge of the old town

A ledger from 1541 makes the first mention of a bridge located on the spot where the Latin Bridge is found today, stating that it was built by one sarač (leather worker) named Husein, the son of Širmed. One can conclude from a later document that this initial wooden bridge was soon destroyed and a stone bridge was built in its place by Ali Ajni Bey, a prominent Sarajevan. This stone bridge was later washed away by a great flood in 1791, but in 1798 a wealthy trader from Sarajevo, Abdulah Briga, donated funds for the construction of the Latin Bridge that can be seen today. The bridge took its name from the neighborhood on the left bank of the Miljacka, where Sarajevo’s Catholics resided. From 1918 to 1993 the structure bore the name, Principov Most (bridge), after Gavrilo Princip, who was only a few meters from this bridge when he assassinated Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, Sofie. This incident, known as the Sarajevo Assassination, led to the beginning of the First World War.

POI in Sarajevo worth to be visited because of its historic importance that WW1 begins from there and there is a museum near to it where you can watch the whole story

Ok to visit, but I expected more information than this transparent, almost unreadable pannel. If you love history this place would be on the list.

The Latin Bridge is a truly remarkable historical landmark that is not to be missed when visiting Sarajevo. As the site of the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, the bridge holds a significant place in world history and is an important part of Sarajevo's rich cultural heritage.

Its unique design and stunning views of the Miljacka River make it a must-see destination for visitors to Sarajevo. The surrounding area is also picturesque and provides an ideal spot for a leisurely stroll, with numerous cafes and restaurants nearby to enjoy a refreshment. Visitors can also explore the museum housed in the building adjacent to the bridge, which provides insight into the historical events that occurred on this very spot. The museum is well-curated and informative, providing a deeper understanding of the bridge's importance in world history. Overall, The Latin Bridge is an essential stop for anyone interested in history, architecture, and culture. Its historical significance, stunning design, and picturesque location make it one of the most fascinating and beautiful landmarks in Sarajevo.

Interesting and important historical landmark. Where the slate of world war I begins.

Iconic bridge in Old town Sarajevo. It’s a walking bridge. The views are amazing.

Bridge of Gavrilo Princip, or now called Latin bridge, near the place where the Young Bosnia organization led by Gavrilo Princip, assassinated Franc Ferdinand, which was a trigger for the 1st World war.

We did a very nice walk along the river, the bridge special in sunset is very nice...

A small bridge but with a nice breeze on the river, and you can walk on both sides, one side is the old sity Alley and the other side there is a small park and some historical buildings.

Very close to the old town, there is a monument on the corner where the assasination took place. I recommend taking a walking tour of the area, it is very revealing. Also on that corner you will see a model car that resembles the one involved in the event at the beginning of WWI. Right across the bridge there is a park with a music pavillion where you can find free wifi.

A nice bridge to cross and take couple of photos in Sarajevo, at night is very attractive with lights

This is a beatiful stone bridge built around 16. Century by Ottoman Empire. Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria is also assasinated near this bridge which started First World War.

Rich in history from WW-1 initiation and very well maintained. Surrounding areas are bustling with nice eateries and vibrant people. Great for an evening experience.

The Latin Bridge is right by the area where Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sofia were assassinated, which began WWI. There's a simple glass memorial nearby with a bit of history, and a full-sized replica of the car they were supposedly in. I heard a local explain that the footsteps by the car were added in the past year.

Has history behind it, but the bridge itself is definitely one of the least impressive things I have seen while in Sarajevo. They don't even have any impressive markers to showcase the history the bridge has, just a couple rather basic inscriptions. I would still walk there to check it out.

Architecturally unimpressive bridge with a rich history. Worth a detour if you are in Sarajevo old town anyway. Read up on the events rg. Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria if you want to know what the fuss around the bridge is about.

infinite peace when you walk this bridge and the parks, sacred religious areas, communal gathering spots. the center and character of a beloved city. calming, rushing waters for writing alongside it, and lights to feel safe at all hours. finest hallmark of Sarajevo

A lot of history does the Latin Bridge has. In 1914 Franz Ferdinand was killed. The assassination led to the outbreak of WW1. To reach this part of Sarajevo can be very challenging. Due to traffic and that it’s very hard to find a parking place.

it’s one of the famous landmarks in Sarajevo, so you must visit ;)

The bridge with the river running under are very lovely especially in spring. It has a lovely design and is impressive as it can be as far as architecture goes. There is a small park with shade to have a rest after a walk. There are a couple points of interstate nearby. The assassination of Franz Ferdinand is incorrectly attributed to this location directly. The assassination happened just off to the side of the bridge to be correct. There is a few plaques and a museum nearby offering account of that situation.

Cool bridge, smaller than expected. Apart from a plaque that said there once was a monument, there isnt really much to see.

Unfortunate event leads to the one of the worsest situation in history.

Nice bridge. But the assassination happened in the other side of the bridge 🌉 and not in it.

Another nice small bridge with good architecture.

Historically important location in Sarajevo's quaint and pretty old town. Lovely views of surrounding monuments and mountains

Of course you must visit this part of Sarajevo - there are lots of benches close to relax and take in the beautiful scenery

There isnt much information around it, overall it feels a bit neglected but it is worth a visit.
