Podgorica Clock Tower, Ottoman clock tower in Stara Varoš, Montenegro.
The Clock Tower rises 19 meters above Bećir Beg Osmanagić square, featuring a metal cross at its summit and an Italian mechanical clock mechanism.
Built in 1667 by Hadži-paša Osmanagić, the tower stands as one of the few Ottoman structures that endured World War II bombardments of Podgorica.
The metal cross added in 1890 by craftsman Stevan Radović represents the transition from Ottoman to Christian governance in Montenegro.
The clock mechanism underwent modernization in 2012 with an electric system installation, while preserving the original components for historical documentation.
For centuries, this structure served as the single public timekeeper in Podgorica, guiding residents through their daily routines.
