At Mejdan is a park that is located on the left bank of the Miljacka River, between the bridges, Latinska Ćuprija and Ćumurija. This green space is located in the heart of old Sarajevo and the area, which takes up about 2,500 m2, has changed its name and function many times over the years.
Right after the founding of Sarajevo, this was where public punishments were carried out, and for this reason it was called Sijaset Mejdan. In the second half of the 15th century it served as a horse track and a place for trading horses and up to that time it was called At Mejdan (at = horse; mejdan = square).
In 1544, Hajji Alija Bakr-Baba built a mosque in the part of town close to Ćumurija Bridge, while Hajji Ismail Misrija built a medresa (religious educational facility) on the eastern side of the mosque’s courtyard in 1741/1742. Soon after, Abdulah Efendi Kantamirija had a library built nearby and, by the end of the 18th century, At Mejdan had become an important educational and cultural center.
It began to lose its original function at the beginning of the 19th century, as Austro-Hungarian occupation saw the destruction of objects that had stood here, and the square was renamed after Baron Josip Filipović, Commander of the occupational forces that arrived in 1878. By 1905 the square was joined to the nearby Vojni Trg (military square) and the entire area was renamed Trg Franje Josipa, after the Austro-Hungarian Emperor.
Between the First and Second World Wars, the park bore the name of Czar Dušan, the first Serbian Czar, and it officially became a park in 1925. During the Second World War it was named after the writer, Edhem Mulabdić, and following liberation in 1945 it was again named after Dušan Silni (“Dušan the Mighty”). The name, At Mejdan, was reinstated in 1993.
The center of the At Mejdan Complex is now dominated by a music pavilion which was built in 1913, as designed by Josip Pospišil. It was destroyed during the Second World War and then totally rebuilt in 2004.
In 2015, the western section of the park was opened to serve as At Mejdan’s protected archeological area, which includes the renovated Bakr-Baba’s Mosque, remains of the mekteb (religious primary school), a courtyard and Misrija’s medresa.

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.

The Suada and Olga Bridge is made of concrete and connects Marijin Dvor, on the right side of the Miljacka River, with the neighborhoods of Kovačići and Grbavica on the left.
During the Ottoman period, there was a wooden structure known as Ćirišhanska Ćuprija (bridge), which took its name after the glue factory (ćirišhana) that was located on the right bank of the river.
The current bridge was constructed after the Second World War and was one of the first structures to be built in Sarajevo once Bosnia and Herzegovina had become a Socialist Republic. During that time it was called Vrbanja Most (bridge).
As fate would have it, the incidents that occurred on this bridge actually signaled the end of the socialist period in BiH. On April 5, 1992 two anti-war protesters, Suada Dilberović and Olga Sučić, were killed on this bridge. They are considered the first of many innocent victims of the last war and the bridge now bears their names.
In 1993 a young couple, known as the Sarajevo Romeo and Juliet, Boško Brkić and Admira Ismić, were also killed on the bridge while trying to escape besieged Sarajevo so that their love would be spared, at any cost, from the senselessness of war.

Vijećnica Museum is located in the basement of Vijećnica, a building that is not only one of the most recognizable symbols of BiH's capital city, but also a world symbol of the meeting of civilizations.
While Vijećnica was undergoing reconstruction, plans were made to include a space for the installation of a permanent exhibit about the building’s original construction, its incineration and renovation, as well as the major events that this building has witnessed during its turbulent history.
The permanent exhibit is still in the process of being completed so, in the meantime, visitors can take a look at the exhibit, “Sarajevo City Hall Revisited”, by Nedžad Mulaomerović. The exhibit tells the story of Vijećnica’s reconstruction, which took nearly two decades to complete.
Another exhibit on display is, “Sarajevo 1914-2014”, which has been done in cooperation with the JU Museum of Sarajevo and tells the story of Sarajevo over the past 100 years, including the story of one of its most important symbols – Vijećnica.

Gazi Husrev Bey’s Museum is dedicated to Gazi Husrev Bey (1480-1541) – the Governor of Bosnia and Sarajevo’s greatest benefactor.
The museum is located in Kuršumlija Medresa, one of the many objects built in the city by Gazi Husrev Bey.
The museum’s collection can be divided into eight thematic sections which fill the rooms that were once used by students at the medresa.
As they pass through the facility, visitors can come to learn more about Gazi Husrev Bey as a historical figure, his endowment (vafuk) and the medresa itself.
The central area in Kuršumlija Medresa is made up of dershani (small lecture halls) which serve as exhibit spaces for the collection of rare items that were part of Gazi Husrev Bey’s vakuf. There is also the muvekithana, a room with instruments used to determine the exact time, as well as a room dedicated to the bequeathed structures that were damaged during the Siege of Sarajevo (1992-1995).
In one of the rooms visitors can watch a documentary on Gazi Husrev Bey, the establishment of his vakuf and the objects that were built in Sarajevo as part of his generous endowment.

The Historical Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina was founded soon after the end of the Second World War, on November 13, 1945, as a museum of national liberation. It was first located in Vijećnica and then moved to a specially designed facility in Marijin Dvor in 1963.
Over the years, this museum has had different names and the scope of its collection has been modified. From 1949 to 1967 it was called the Museum of the People’s Revolution of BiH, then the Museum of the BiH Revolution (1967-1993), until it finally acquired its current name in 1993.
The museum covers the entire history of Bosnia and Herzegovina, from the first mention of “Bosna” in historical sources (in the document, De Administrando Imperio, issued by Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus) up until the present day.
The museum’s collection is divided into six main areas: archival material, photographs, three-dimensional objects, artwork, a research library and documentation center.
The collection comprises some 400,000 items, many of which are very rare.

The Museum of Sarajevo 1878-1918 is an annex of the Museum of Sarajevo and its permanent exhibit shows Sarajevo during the time of Austro-Hungarian rule (1878-1918).
The Sarajevo Assassination was carried out on June 28, 1914 right in front of what was then a shop named “Schiller's”, in the building that now houses the museum. The assassination of the Austro-Hungarian heir apparent, Franz Ferdinand, and his wife, Sophie, was carried out by Gavrilo Princip, a member of the revolutionary organization, Young Bosna.
The museum’s exhibit is laid out chronologically and starts with events which paved the way for the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy to receive its mandate during the Berlin Congress to occupy Bosnia and Herzegovina and ends with the First World War, whose outbreak was caused by the Sarajevo Assassination.
The exhibit can be divided into eight distinct sections: Resistance to Occupation, New Administration, Cultural Life, Cultural-Religious Educational Societies, Printing Presses and Publishing; Industry and Architecture; Annexation and the Bosnian Diet; The Assassination of the Heir Apparent, Franz Ferdinand, and His Wife, Sophie and The First World War.
The life-size models of Franz Ferdinand and Sophie are among the most interesting items on display.

The National Museum of BiH was founded on February 1, 1888 and was first housed in a building next to the Sarajevo Cathedral. Construction of the facility in Marijin Dvor, the museum’s current home, got underway in 1909 and was completed in 1913 and designed by Karl Paržik.
The museum allows visitors to take “a short walk” through BiH’s past, from earliest times all the way to the ethnology exhibit, whose interior captures the atmosphere of a traditional city house during the Ottoman period.
The permanent exhibit, Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Middle Ages, takes up three separate halls which contain archaeological pieces dating from the Middle Ages (6th c. to 15th c.). Among the 11,500 items on display, there are some that even adorned the interior of the palace where the royal Kotromanić family resided.
The most valuable item in the museum’s collection is the famous Sarajevo Haggadah, which the Sephardic Jews brought to Sarajevo when they left Spain.
There is also the rich collection in the natural history section which covers both living and non-living worlds, including a skeleton of a bearded vulture, a bird with a giant wingspan which used to fly in the skies above BiH not that long ago.
There is a botanical garden in the central part of the complex, home to more than 3,000 types of plants, including some endemic varieties.
Some of the most representative examples of Bosnian stećci can also be found among the greenery.

From July 1993 until the end of the Siege in late February 1996, the Sarajevo War Tunnel was the only connection besieged Sarajevo had with the outside world.
It took more than six months to dig the tunnel and was done using pickaxes and shovels. The only source of light the workers had was provided by “war candles”, containers filled with cooking oil and fitted with a wick made from string.
On the night of July 30, 1993, the tunnel was finally completed, giving Sarajevo an outlet to the world. The 800-meter-long corridor is a little over a meter wide and has an average height of 1.5 meters.
Thanks to the tunnel, the beleaguered city regained access to telephone lines, oil supplies, food and electric energy.
After the war, about 20 meters of the tunnel became part of a museum which contains many items from the time of the Siege of Sarajevo – the longest-running siege of any city in modern history.

Parks & Nature
The most popular walking avenue in the center of Sarajevo is Wilson's Promenade, which stretches along the Miljacka River, from the Suada and Olga Bridge to the Elektroprivreda building and the bridge on Topal Osman Paše Street.
Wilson’s Promenade was laid out during the Austro-Hungarian period, when it was called Kalajeva Promenada, after Benjamin Kalaj, who served as both Minister of Finance for the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and as an administrator of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
After the break-up of the K. und K. Monarchy and the establishment of the Kingdom of SHS, Kalajeva Promenada was renamed Vilsonovo Šetalište, after U.S. President, Thomas Woodrow Wilson. It was a major turning point in the First World War when he declared war on the Central Powers in 1917.
During the Nazi-Ustaša occupation (1941-1945), this promenade was named Musolinijevo Šetalište, after the Italian fascist leader. After the war, it was again renamed Vilsonovo and then Omladinsko Šetalište in 1960. The name, Vilsonovo Šetalište, was again reinstated for this attractive walking area in 1993.
What really makes this promenade a green oasis in the center of Sarajevo is the fact that it is lined on both sides with thick rows of linden trees, which were planted at the beginning of the 20th century.
The road that runs along the promenade is closed to traffic every weekday after 5:00 p.m., as well as on weekends and holidays.
There are a few spots along the promenade that have exercise equipment, plus, there is a fenced-in play area for youngsters.
There are several cafes and eateries located along Vilsonovo and their outdoor gardens are popular outing spots during the summer months in Sarajevo.

The natural monument, Vrelo Bosne, is spread out over 603 hectares at the foot of Mount Igman in Ilidža, about 15 kilometers from the center of Sarajevo.
As it is the source of the Bosna River, with lovely lakes full of fish and swans and small green islands, and since temperatures in summer are several degrees lower here than in Sarajevo, Vrelo Bosne has been a favorite outing destination for Sarajevans for the past 100 years.
This area serves as a habitat for various plant communities and animal species, some of which are endemic. Six streams from the Vrelo Bosne source area flow into the Mala Bosna watercourse, which is home to indigenous varieties of river trout.
Vrelo Bosne is also an area which contains the main source for Sarajevo’s “Bačevo” drinking water.
Vrelo Bosne is fenced in and well maintained. There are benches, covered rest areas, play areas for children and a restaurant in the center of the complex which serves a local specialty – fresh river trout.
