Maraşoğlu Bridge

Maraşoğlu Bridge

Built in the 19th century, Maraşoğlu Bridge gracefully links the two sides of Mustafapaşa with its stone arches. Reflecting the craftsmanship of Sinasos, it stands out for both its architecture and its poetic inscription:

“Like a link joining two separate parts,
I unite the two sides of a town.
Yet like the crown of a glorious victory,
I immortalize the virtue of a noble compatriot.
May the soul of Vasilios Maraşoğlu rest in peace.”
This inscription turns the bridge into more than a structure – a timeless symbol of gratitude and unity in Mustafapasa.
