Geocache Description:


Die Lateiner Brücke war ursprünglich aus Holz, und den Brückenbau finanzierte Ajni-Berg (1565). Die ursprüngliche Steinbrücke bekam das heutige Aussehen 1798, den Neubau finanzierte Hadschi Abdulah Briga. Den eigentlichen Namen führt die Brücke von naheliegenden Stadtviertel Latinluk. In diesem, auf dem rechten Milijacka-Ufer liegenden Stadtteil lebten Katholiken, darunter auch ragusanische Händler.Diese Brücke erlebte die Turlulenzen der Geschichte mit, so auch das Attentat auf den österr.-ungarischen Thronfolger Franz Ferdinand und seine Gemahlin Sofia, das Gavrilo Princip 1914 auf dem rechten Ufer ausübte. Bald nach diesem Attentat brach der Erste Weltkrieg aus.

Latin bridge has a turbulent past. The very first bridge was made of wood, while the first stone bridge was built in 1565 from the funds of Ajnibey. The bridge as seen today was built in 1798, financed by Hajji Abdulah Briga. The bridge was named after Sarajevo borough Latinluk or Frenkluk (on the right bank of the Miljacka) were mostly Catholics including merchants from Dubrovnik used to live. It was near the Latin bridge on the right bank of the Miljacka in 1914 that Gavrilo Princip assassinated Austro-Hungrian heir to the throne Franc Ferdinand and his wife Sofia. Shortly afterwards, the First World War started.
