Digital comic on how the heir to the kingdom of Austria-Hungary (Archduke Franz Ferdinand) was assassinated in broad daylight.
Öykü Penceresi Metni
The grenade missed its target and it injured several bystanders behind the car. The archduke's car sped off to the town hall.
Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, Sophie arrived at Sarajevo train station at 9:28 a.m. A car awaited them.
They drove slowly towards the town hall and waved towards the crowd on the roadside.
Seven Black Hand Assassins waited for the car by the Cumurja Bridge. One of the Serbians had a hand grenade with a 10 second fuse.
The Archduke cancelled the rest of his visit. The disappointed assassins went about their usual day. Princip, one of the assassins, went for lunch at a famous restaurant on Franz Joseph Street.
Franz Joseph Street
The archduke made the last minute decision to check on the injured people from the bomb.
They took a wrong turn and passed a place called Schiller's to ask for directions.
Both the Archduke and his wife pass away. Princip received a 20 year sentence in jail and eventually died to tuberculosis.
By coincidence, Princip was also on Franz Joseph Street. He took out his pistol and shot Ferdinand and Sophie in the throat and stomach respectively.
