Sniper Alley published interesting photos of Sarajevo citizens taken back in 1920 on the Facebook page Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) – photo encyclopedia.
In the photos, you can see children, sellers of flatbreads, men in traditional costumes, women wearing fereja, believers praying in Beg’s mosque…
It is interesting that at that time it was not unusual to see donkeys in the city center. At that time, they served citizens to transport cargo.
After the First World War, the city became part of the Yugoslav state communities: the SHS State (State of Slovenes, Croats and Serbs), and then the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The architectural image remains almost unchanged, the industry declines, the social dissatisfaction of the workers grows.
Sarajevo, as a city, between the two world wars, mostly stagnates and declines economically. The lethargy the city has fallen into is interrupted by protests and strikes by workers and Sarajevo intellectuals.
