Ješua D. Salom Mansion

The Bosnische Post for 11 December 1901 reported on a housewarming party which had been held the previous Sunday at the splendid new 'palais' of Ješua Salom, a leading member of a Sephardic Jewish family in Sarajevo: On Sunday morning Herr Ješua D. Salom invited Sarajevo society to the opening of his new palace on the Appel-Kai.

In fashionable good taste, which is displayed in this house in the form of perfect beauty combined with useful comfort, he has created something new in Sarajevo which we shall all wish to copy.

[3] In 2008, the Cantonal Institute for the Protection of the Cultural, Historical and Natural Heritage of Sarajevo rebuilt the mansion, which was then listed as a National Monument.

The decoration of the facade develops from the bottom up, with the main emphasis being placed on a centrally placed wide outlet in the form of a loggia above which is a balcony and a dome.

The entrance to the building is a two-winged wooden portal measuring 2.15 m x 3.30 m, made of quality oak wood with brown protective paint.
