Evidence remains of the agony of the 4 years they were under seige.

Corner where the assassin of the Archduke Ferdinand stood thus starting WW1. 

Bridge where the carriage was.

Famous tunnel that brought supplies into Sarajevo for 4 years. 

One of the original tunnel builders. 

We were hosted by these two ladies in their home.  An apartment built under Communism on the Soviet model.  About 500 square feet and it houses three generations, grandparents, parents and two children.  2 bedrooms and 1 bath.  They consider themselves lucky.
