What a legend!
This mid-13th century tower has a legend, and what a legend! Supposedly, a cannon shot fired from the Lotrscak tower (which guards the south gate) crossed the Sava River and landed in a Turkish camp, right when a chicken dish was being brought to the Pasha for lunch. The accuracy of the cannons led the invading Turk to call off his invasion of the city. As this shot was at noon, a memorial shot is fired at the same hour every day. You can climb the tower and have a 360-degree panoramic view of Zagreb. Opening hours: 11:00am - 8:00pm, Tuesday - Sunday. Entry fee is 10 HRK.
