  Vuk's Bridge
by Zvrlj
 
 

Vukov most – Vuk's Bridge was built in the second half of the 19th century, to replace older Begov most – the Bey's Bridge, destroyed in 1807 when Montenegrins with support of Russian soldiers attacked the town held by Turks. The bridge was reconstructed at the request of King Nikola, who named it Vukov most, after the famous Montenegrin hero Vuk Micunovic

The bridge crosses the river Zeta at Kapino Polje, at northwest verge of Niksic, on the road to Trebinje, and it is "accompanied" by recently built extension used for motor vehicles traffic.
