Torre del Reloj, Toro, Medieval clock tower in Toro, Spain.

The Torre del Reloj stands as a square limestone structure with four distinct levels, featuring a baroque architectural design and multiple clock faces.

Built in 1719 under architect Valentín Antonio de Mazarrasa y Torres, the tower rises above the former market gate of the city walls.

The tower serves as a central meeting point for residents, marking time with its bells that ring across the urban landscape of Toro.

Located at the beginning of Corredera Street near Plaza Mayor, the tower provides passage through its base arch to the local market area.

Local tales mention that wine replaced water in the construction mortar due to the abundant grape production in the Toro region.
