  Andrictown (Andrićgrad) is a tourist, cultural, administrative and educational complex. It is situated on a peninsula between the rivers Drina and Rzav in Visegrad.

Andrićgrad is a project of a famous film director Emir Kusturica, the stone town inspired by the literary works and characters of Nobel Prize winner Ivo Andric. It’s architecture is a mix of different eras and styles that passed throughout Visegrad history: the Byzantine style, the Ottoman period, the Renaissance, the Classicism.


Some of the main objects of Andrićgrad are: Ivo Andric institute with a center for Slavic languages, Fine arts Academy, Town hall, renaissance theater, multiplex cinema, accommodation objects and much more.

The whole complex will be finished in June 2014. It is estimated that Andrićgrad will become one of the biggest tourist attractions in the region, together with Mehmed pasa bridge, Drina river boat cruise, and reconstructed narrow gauge tourist railway Visegrad - Mokra Gora.
