Clock Tower of Shkodër, Clock tower in Shkodër, Albania.
The Clock Tower of Shkodër rises 16.35 meters from a square base that gradually narrows toward the top, featuring a prominent clock mechanism visible from multiple city locations.
Lord Alfred Paget commissioned the construction of this tower during the late 19th century, initially planning for it to function as an Anglican church in the region.
The structure, known locally as Sahati i Inglizit, stands near the market area where it served as a central timekeeping device for merchants and residents.
The tower remains accessible to visitors throughout the year, situated in the center of Shkodër within walking distance of other historical landmarks and attractions.
The clock mechanism represents an engineering achievement from the 19th century, marking time for the community despite periods of political and social changes.
