The Clock Tower Podgorica

 

 

 

One of the oldest symbols of the city and the finest example of architecture from the Ottoman period is certainly the Clock Tower, which is located on the Square Becir Bey Osmanagic in the settlement Stara Varos (Old Town) in Podgorica. It's one of the very few Ottoman landmarks that survived the bombing of Podgorica in World War II.

 

Clock Tower (Sahat Kula) was built in 1667, by Hadzi Pasha Osmanagic, a prominent citizen of Podgorica. According to the legend, the clock was brought from Italy. For a long time, it was used for defense against enemies and it was also the only public clock in the city. Up to rapid urbanization in the second half of the XX century she was a landmark for intending passengers who were coming in Podgorica.

 

Clock Tower is an important historical symbol of Podgorica and the finest example of architecture remaining from the Ottoman period. The clock was renovated in January 2012, but its height of 16 m and today dominates the area of Stara Varos.
