Clock Tower, Clock tower at Skanderbeg Square, Tirana, Albania
The Clock Tower of Tirana reaches 35 meters in height and features a spiral staircase with 90 steps leading to its observation platform.
The Clock Tower, constructed in 1822 by Et'hem bey Mollaj, required additional height modification in 1928 to accommodate a new clock mechanism.
The Clock Tower holds status as a first-category cultural monument since 1948 and forms an architectural ensemble with the adjacent Et'hem Bey Mosque.
Visitors can access the Clock Tower free of charge and climb to its top for views across Skanderbeg Square and central Tirana.
The tower's clock mechanism, initially assembled by Watchmaster Ismail Tufina, underwent multiple replacements due to damage during both World Wars.
