Или просто Часовая башня Or just the Clock Tower

Rating 6110

Compared to other monuments in Antalya, Saat Kulesi is relatively young. It was built on the border of the XIX - XX centuries. On the 25th anniversary of his reign, the German Emperor Wilhelm II presented Sultan Abdul Hamid with a batch of facade clocks. It was after this that clock towers appeared in several cities of Turkey at once. Historians still argue about the purpose of this tower. Some say that the building was specially built to set the clock in the central part of the city. The clock tower has retained its original appearance to this day. The exception is the dome, which once adorned the top of Saat Kulesi. After a strong hurricane, it was replaced with teeth. On the north side of the tower, an iron pole has been preserved, once the bodies of the executed were hung on it for viewing by all the townspeople. The tower clock itself was originally decorated with figures of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ, they were removed only in 1974.
You will see, so you will see, but no, don’t be too upset.
