Latin Bridge
Sarajevo, Bosnia and HerzegovinaAbout Latin Bridge
The spot where WWI began — the Ottoman bridge over the Miljacka River where Gavrilo Princip shot Archduke Franz Ferdinand on 28 June 1914. A small museum marks the event; the bridge itself is unremarkable except for its extraordinary historical weight. The most consequential 10 square meters in 20th-century history.
