★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Reference point of the town, nothing than a historical monument worth more than some photos. Night lightning is too kitschy.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Mediterranean and Oriental style with characteristic fountains covering the four sides. Osman Pasha the Kurd, vali and general commander of Epirus and southern Albania from 1897 to 1905, wanting to celebrate the Jubilee of Sultan Abdul Chamit Khan decided to erect a commemorative tower employing for this purpose Pericles Meliryttous, an architect who used for the construction marble carvers and masons from Konitsa, Kastaniani and Vourbiani.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I mean as a land mark, it doesn't really stand out.In my opinion Ioannina City, has many worth seeing monuments this is not one. Although it is right in the center of the city so you may just pass by it and a take a look

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The clock tower of Ioannina is a remarkable historical monument.
It is located Located in the memorial park of the city near to the military base.
The tower was erected at 1905 by Osman Pasha the Kurd, that was the commander of Epirus and southern Albania at that period and it was made for celebrating the Jubilee of Sultan Abdul Chamit (the 34th Sultan of the Ottoman Empire).
It was originaally erected in the center of the square and not on the current location, but it was transfered to the current location at 1922, during a parade to celebrate the victory of the Allies in the First World War.
It is very nice to walk in the memorial park and to see thebeautiful statues and the monoments of the greek warriors along the late history of greece.
