Summary/Abstract: The multiannual presence of the Museum of Herzegovina Mostar with its departments and settings on the Old Bridge, a UNESCO monument, led us to build a special museum department, the first of its kind in Bosnia and Herzegovina - the Museum Interpretation Center within our institution. The Interpretation Museum was opened on July 23, 2014 during the of marking the 10th anniversary of the renovation of the Old Bridge in Mostar. A place of interpretation and understanding of the territory was set, as a starting point for visiting the cultural and natural sights of Mostar and the region of Herzegovina. The museum introduces an individual into an experience of cognition and contact. Narrator is the Neretva River, which, passing through the entire geographical landscapes and cities, presents history and present time. The role of objects / exhibits is to strengthen their symbolic value, support the story of the territory. The use of new technical equipment and scenographic installations enables attractive and exciting presentation. The interpretation itself has a lot of artistic elements related to the richness of these topics, such as literature, painting, artistic and musical installations.  By establishing the Interpretation Center, the rich cultural heritage of Mostar and the region is presented in an appropriate way.
