Tirana Clock Tower (Kulla e Sahatit)

The Tirana Clock Tower (Kulla e Sahatit), constructed in 1822 by Haxhi Et’hem Bey, rises as a simple yet striking stone structure in the heart of Albania’s capital. Topped with clocks on each of its four sides and crowned by a pyramid-shaped cupola, the tower stands adjacent to the Et’hem Bey Mosque, adding to the historic skyline. Visitors can ascend the tower for panoramic views of the city or explore the attached museum, which offers further insights into the site’s rich history.
