The Arslanagić Bridge spans the Trebišnjica River in Trebinje, Republika Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and exemplifies Ottoman architecture from the sixteenth century. Built in 1574 from limestone, it stands as a notable example of Islamic bridge engineering in the Balkans. The structure carries the name of the Bosniak Muslim family associated with its construction. During the Bosnian War, the bridge was temporarily renamed the Perović Bridge as a protective measure to shield it from destruction by obscuring its Islamic-associated name. In recognition of its historical and architectural significance, it was declared a National Monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina on 25 January 2006.
