Most u Visegradu na listi WMF-a

[Prenj]

Zahvaljujuci zalaganjima Komisije za ocuvanje nacionalnih spomenika BiH, most Mehmed pase Sokolovica u Visegradu je uvrsten na listu 100 najugrozenijih lokacija WMF-a za 2006. godinu, sto je svakako korak koji bi mogao doprinijeti obezbjedjenju sredstava za ocuvanje mosta.

Mehmed-Pasha Sokolovic Bridge
VISEGRAD, BOSNIA/HERZEGOVINA

Stretching over the waters of the Drina River in eastern Bosnia, the sixteenth-century Mehmed-Pasha Sokolovic Bridge is a famous Balkan icon. Designed by Sinan (1489–1588), who is considered by many to have been the finest architect of the Ottoman Empire, the bridge is one of nine completed by him—of which six survive. The subject of Ivo Andric’s 1945 Nobel Prize-winning book The Bridge on the Drina, the Mehmed-Pasha Sokolovic Bridge retains much of its original fabric, although it was repaired several times in the sixteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. Three of its 11 arches were destroyed in World War I, while five were damaged in World War II. All were subsequently restored.

The famous bridge now connects pedestrians from the urban area of Visegrad with a wilderness area on the adjacent bank of the Drina. The construction of two hydroelectric power plants and a reservoir nearby, together with sub-surface instability, have caused the water level of the Drina to rise and strain the load-bearing capacity of the bridge pillars. The substantial erosion of the submerged sections of the pillars and their bases threatens the stability of the entire Mehmed-Pasha Sokolovic Bridge. There has been no regular maintenance of the bridge in recent decades due to a lack of funds.
