Clock Tower of Prilep, Clock tower in Prilep, North Macedonia
The Clock Tower rises 40 meters above the streets of Prilep, featuring a mechanical clock mechanism that was imported from Vienna in the 19th century.
The tower, constructed in 1826 during the Ottoman period, marked a period of architectural development and urban expansion in the growing city of Prilep.
The structure, known locally as Саат кула, represents the intersection of Ottoman timekeeping traditions with European clock manufacturing technology in North Macedonia.
The clock tower remains visible from multiple points in Prilep and serves as a central reference point for navigating through the city streets.
The clock mechanism continues to function after nearly two centuries, maintaining its original purpose as the main timekeeper for the residents of Prilep.
