Clock Tower of Korçë, Ottoman clock tower in Korçë, Albania
The stone clock tower stands 17 meters tall with an octagonal shape and features traditional Ottoman architectural elements in its design and construction.
Constructed in 1784 through collaboration between Muslim Albanians and Orthodox Moscopoleans, the tower was originally part of the Mosque Complex of Iliaz Hodja.
The clock tower serves as a central gathering point in Korçë where residents meet and participate in local community events throughout the year.
Located in the Old Bazaar on Rruga Asim Vokshi, the clock tower maintains its function as a public timekeeper for the surrounding neighborhood.
Following destruction during communist rule and an earthquake in 1960, the tower underwent complete reconstruction in 2016 to restore its original features.
