The Sarajevo Clock Tower (Bosnian: Sarajevska sahat-kula) is a clock tower in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is located beside Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque and is one of the largest clock towers in the country. The clock shows lunar time, in which the hands indicate 12 o'clock at the moment of sunset, the time of the Muslim Maghrib prayer.[1] A caretaker sets the clock's time manually once a week.[2][3]

History

The tower was constructed by Gazi Husrev-beg, a governor of the area during the Ottoman period.[4] The earliest known documented mention of the tower dates to the 17th century. It was rebuilt twice, once after fire damage when the city was attacked by Eugene of Savoy in 1697,[5] and in 1762.

In 1874 the clock was replaced by a mechanism made by Gillett & Bland of London. The previous Turkish mechanism was moved to the mosque in Vratnik.

In 1967 the clock was repaired, and the hands and numbers on all four clock faces were gilt.

National monument

In 2006 the clock tower was declared a national monument by a commission to preserve the country's heritage.[6]
