Named in honor of Spanish volunteers who fought in the Bosnian War, the square serves as a cultural and social hub, especially popular among students due to its proximity to schools and the University of Mostar.
Located near the Neretva River, Musala offers a more modern contrast to Mostar’s Ottoman Old Town, yet retains echoes of its layered history. It’s an ideal spot for people-watching, enjoying local coffee culture, or simply soaking in the rhythm of everyday life in Mostar.
Step into a 17th-century Ottoman family residence. Explore its wooden interiors, handmade carpets, and tranquil river views. Gain insight into Mostar’s architectural elegance and way of life centuries ago.
This lies on the right side of the Neretva river, and it was built before 1600. A rivulet from the river Radobolja flows under the mosque, and it joins the Neretva to the south of the Old Bridge. Thus the Imam was always on the mainland during prayer while the believers were on the water.
Begin your tour at Mostar’s most iconic landmark. Learn the story behind the bridge’s Ottoman origins, its wartime destruction, and its symbolic reconstruction. Continue through the Old Town’s cobbled lanes and colorful bazaars.
Today's old part of the town on the left bank of the Neretva, was called Kujundžiluk after the numerous coppersmiths „Kujundžije“. There were many tailors, but the most numerous artisans were tanners, great masters for processing leather. Nowadays, Kujundziluk is an area of small artisan workshops and fascinating handicrafts.
Tucked away in the charming old quarter of Mostar, the Crooked Bridge (Kriva Ćuprija) is a hidden gem with timeless beauty. Believed to be a miniature prototype of the famous Old Bridge (Stari Most), it dates back to the 16th century and arches gracefully over the Radobolja River.

A magical and wonderful moment, thank you very much to Fortuna Tours DMC Mostar. We came as 8 girls to discover Mostar and we had an exceptional moment with our guide Sacha. He was fantastic from start to finish, very professional, and he speaks French very well, which helps. A great guy! I recommend him 200%! Thank you very much, Sacha.
I recently took the Old Town Tour in Mostar and found it quite enjoyable. Our guide Gordon was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly, which made the history come alive. The pace was just right, enough time to appreciate the sights without feeling rushed. I definitely recommend this tour for anyone wanting to explore the charm of Mostar.
