Çorum Clock Tower

The stone clock tower rises 27.5 meters high in the city center, featuring four clock faces on each side and a pointed dome.

Built in 1896 under Governor Yedisekiz Hasan Pasha, the tower stands as a testament to late Ottoman architectural development in central Anatolia.

The clock tower functions as a central meeting point where residents gather daily, maintaining its role as a social hub since its construction.

Located at the intersection of three main streets, the tower remains operational and provides time information visible from multiple directions in the city.

The structure incorporates local yellow cut stones in its construction, creating a distinctive appearance that harmonizes with regional architectural elements.
