Located near the village of Bishtazhin in Gjakova, Kosovo, Terzi Bridge—also known as Tailors' Bridge—spans the Erenik river and stands as a distinguished example of Ottoman architecture. Built probably at the end of the 15th century and altered in the 18th century, this stone arch footbridge derives its name from the Tailors' guild of Gjakova. The structure underwent major reconstruction and restoration to its original appearance between 1982 and 1984. Today it is protected as an Immovable Cultural Heritage of Exceptional Importance by the Republic of Kosovo, a designation first awarded in 1990.
