Sahat kula (Clock Tower)
The lunar clock
About Sahat kula (Clock Tower)
The clock tower next to the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque keeps “alla turca” lunar time, set at sunset, so that the hours of prayer could be known. It is one of very few clocks of its kind still working.
Why it's on our list
- Lunar time
- Next to the great mosque
- A rare survivor
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Sahat kula (Clock Tower) before you go.
