The Clock Tower

The clock tower is another emblem of the city of Dubrovnik. You see it the moment you enter the old city walls, at the bottom of the main street. The bell was constructed by Ivan Krstitelj in the year 1506, and still stands there, despite wars, earthquakes and bombings, and it still rings each time with incredible accuracy. The First tower was constructed in the year1444, and the last restoration was in the year1929. Gradually height was added to the tower, to reach 31 meters. If you go on the hour, you will see the "green man", Zelenci, the guy who goes to ring the bells ... As in all old cities, it is a place that you must see.
