The Clock Tower of Bitola, known as Saat Kula (Macedonian: Саат кула), is a 33 meter-high clock tower that stands as a prominent landmark of the Macedonian city of Bitola today. The original clock tower first built in 1664 by Mahmut Bey when the city was part of the Ottoman Empire and known as Manastır. Legend has it that the Turks collected 60,000 eggs from the surrounding villages and mixed the shells into the construction mortar. It is located in the immediate center of Bitola on the northern part of the main street Širok Sokak, not far away from Magnolia Square, where there are numerous cultural and historical monuments as well as new constructions. There have been many restorations done to the clock tower over the years and it still retains its original appearance. On top of the clock tower is a small dome, providing a stunning view of the city and surrounding area. A must-see destination for anyone visiting Bitola, the Clock Tower makes a perfect spot for sightseeing and pictures.
