Clock tower in Bitola

Summary edit

Description
English: The clock tower in Bitola — a building in the city of Bitola and one of its most famous sights. It is not known exactly when it was built, although there are written sources from the 16th century that mention a clock tower, but it has not been established with certainty whether it is the same building. Many believe that it was built at the same time as the church "St. Dimitria of Solunski", i.e. in 1830. According to legend, the tower was built when the Ottoman authorities in the city, i.e. the Turks, went through all the surrounding villages and collected about 60,000 eggs from which they made mortar. From the mixture mixed with stones, they built the tower, whose solid walls are still standing undamaged today.
Македонски: Саат-кулата во Битола — здание во градот Битола и една од најпознатите негови знаменитости. Не се знае точно кога е изградена, иако постојат пишани извори од XVI век кои споменуваат саат-кула, но не е утврдено со сигурност дали се работи за истата градба. Многумина веруваат дека е изградена во исто време со црквата „Св. Димитрија Солунски“, односно во 1830 година. Според легендата, кулата е изградена кога отоманските власти во градот, односно Турците, поминале по сите околни села и собрале околу 60.000 јајца од коишто направиле малтер. Од смесата измешана со камења ја изградиле кулата чии цврсти ѕидови стојат и денес неоштетени.
