Timeless Architectural Marvel: Sarajevo City Hall

Located in the heart of Sarajevo, the Sarajevo City Hall, also known as Vijećnica, is a striking example of neo-Moorish architecture.

Constructed in 1896, it was initially the city hall of Sarajevo and has witnessed significant historical events. After severe damage during the 1990s Siege of Sarajevo, it was painstakingly reconstructed, reopening in 2014. The building features a vibrant striped façade and a stained-glass ceiling, reflecting the artistic heritage of the era.
