Arslanagić Bridge (Serbo-Croatian: Arslanagića ćuprija, Serbian Cyrillic: Арсланагића ћуприја; Turkish: Arslanağa Köprüsü),[1] is a bridge in the municipality of Trebinje, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and since 25 January 2006 a National Monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[2]

During the Bosnian War, bridge was renamed Perović Bridge (Serbo-Croatian: Perovića most). An explanation for this was that intention was to divert attention from its name which was Bosniak Muslim family surname Arslanagić, and which could eventually be a reason for Serb nationalists to demolish it.[1]
