Jablanica, Bosnia: 3-Time Destroyed Bridge of Neretva

, , ,


Along the Neretva Canyon in Jablanica, Bosnia is the site of a bridge destroyed 3 times – during World War II. This is one of the hundreds of bridges destroyed in World War II. It’s one of few bridges not rebuilt and is left to serve as a memory of the devastation.

The bridge of Neretva was destroyed 3 times – once as a trick, once in World War II and once for the movie scene showing the bombing of the bridge.

It’s hard to imagine what state of mind one would need to in to cause destruction in a beautiful place like this.

The remains of bridge in Jablanica, still lie fallen in the river. Also, on the right is an old train that may have used the bridge. I love the color of the hills and river! How stunning!
