The Soca River and its bridges Reka Soča in njeni mostovi

ethnology lecture

The river and its bridges. History, technique, Architecture, Environment and landscape

The Soca River originates in Slovenia, in the picturesque Trenta Valley, and after 136 kilometers, of which almost 100 kilometers pass through Slovenian territory, and about 40 remaining kilometers through Italy, it ends its journey in the Gulf of Trieste.

Like any river, the Soca creates a clear crack between territories, so over the centuries man has been looking for ways to connect the two sides of this natural barrier.

With extraordinary artistry and ingenuity, bridges have been built, the history, construction techniques, materials used and plans for the future of which we want to bring closer to the viewer.

It is a journey through the history of a territory dominated by this river for millennia, through its social, political and cultural events.

It is a story about the demolition caused by the number of war conflicts and about the subsequent reconstruction, ranging from the invasions of barbarian peoples to the tragic world wars of the past century.

Reka Soča in njeni mostovi. Zgodovina, tehnika, arhitektura, okolje in pokrajina

Reka Soča izvira v Sloveniji, v slikoviti dolini Trente in po 136 kilometrih, od katerih skoraj 100 kilometrov preteče po slovenskem ozemlju, približno 40 preostalih kilometrov pa po Italiji, konča svojo pot v Tržaškem zalivu.

Kot vsaka reka, tudi Soča ustvarja jasno razpoko med ozemlji, zato je človek skozi stoletja iskal načine, kako povezati obe strani te naravne pregrade.

Z izredno umetelnostjo in iznajdljivostjo so bili zgrajeni mostovi, katerih zgodovino, gradbene tehnike, uporabljene materiale in načrte za prihodnost želimo približati gledalcu.

Gre za popotovanje skozi zgodovino ozemlja, ki ga tisočletja moči ta reka, skozi njegove družbene, politične in kulturne dogodke.

Je zgodba o rušenju, ki ga je povzročilo število vojnih spopadov in o kasnejših obnovah, ki segajo od vpadov barbarskih ljudstev do tragičnih svetovnih vojn minulega stoletja.
