Clock Tower of Ulcinj, Ottoman clock tower in Ulcinj, Montenegro.
The rectangular stone Clock Tower rises prominently in the center of Ulcinj, featuring traditional Ottoman architectural elements and a bell mechanism at its summit.
The Clock Tower was constructed in 1754 through community donations during the Ottoman Empire's administration of Ulcinj, marking a period of urban development.
A dedicated timekeeper, known as muvekit, maintained the clock's accuracy, establishing a connection between the tower's function and the daily lives of residents.
The Clock Tower stands near Namazgjahu Mosque and Kryepazari Mosque, with its chimes audible throughout the entire town of Ulcinj.
The tower's strategic placement ensures its visibility from every corner of Ulcinj, making it an essential reference point for navigation through the city streets.
