Peqin Clock Tower
The Clock Tower is an architectural and historical symbol of the city. It was built in the 19th century (1823–1841) with worked stones and traditional construction techniques. The tower is notable for its unique mechanism, which operated with the weight of stones and a system of bells that signaled the passing of the hours.
In addition to its practical function, the tower also had a symbolic role for the community, serving as a point of orientation and gathering. Today, it remains a cultural monument and an attraction that attracts visitors for its history, unique architecture, and the value it carries in local identity.
