SAHAT-KULA - Clock Tower - it is assumed that it was erected at a date later than 1664. It is typical of clock-towers in Herzegovina, which arose under the influence of Mediterranean-Dalmatian architecture. It is stone-built, with dressed quoins and ending in a stone pyramid. There are four pointed arches on the four sizes above the opening near the top of the tower. This type of sahat-kula is to be found in Počitelj, Mostar, and Stolac.


The historic site of Počitelj is located on the river Neretva and it is south of Mostar. It is believed that the fortified town along with its settlements were built by Bosnia's King Stjepan Tvrtko I in 1383. The walled town of Počitelj evolved in the period from the 16th to the 18th centuries. It is a fortified complex, in which two stages of evolution are evident: medieval, and Ottoman.
