Stari most Rijeka Crnojevica

Danilo's bridge

Montenegro is country with many natural beautiful landscapes and settlements and we are very proud when we hear comments from those that visit us for the first time. Among the many parts of this “wild beauty”, it is difficult to make a video without seeing an old bridge in the third and fourth frame after Sveti Stefan island or the walls of the old town of Kotor.

This Old Bridge is located in Rijeka Crnojevića and is one of the main features of this wonderful town. It was made by Montenegrin prince Danilo I Petrović in 1853. in honor of his father Stanko. The bridge then connected one of the main trading centers, Rijeka Crnojevića, with the old town of Obod, which was the seat of the ruling Crnojević dynasty.
