    The Clock Tower is the most famous monument and symbol of Bitola. It is located in the center. The town clock dominates with its height and broadcasts popular music in time with the hour hand. Although no documentation of its construction has been found, it is assumed that it was built during the period of Turkish rule, in the 14th century, together with the Jeni Mosque.

    It is 33 m high and stands on a square base. On the north side there is a semicircular entrance and internal staircases made of stone in the shape of a spiral. It is divided into three floors, and on the third floor there is the mechanism with clocks on all four sides. The top part is a small dome that offers a beautiful view of the City of Consuls and the surrounding area. The park around the tower is the place for citizens to gather on Christmas Eve. There they light candles on the lawn and along the sidewalk on Christmas Eve.
