Clock Tower
It is in Tophane ( Armoury ) Park that Mausoleums of Osman Gazi and Orhangazi are also in. Bursa Clock Tower was built at Sultan Abd�laziz Time (1861-1876) as a fire tower. The tower was made from cutting stones; it has got a balcony at the second and third floors, a sharp arched window at every side and a niche, next to the windows. The first tower, which has got Bursa view and had a clock, at the third floor, was ruined. But, the time of destruction is not known. One tower was rebuilt at the same place; the Governor Resit Mumtaz Pasa opened it for 2nd Abdulhamid's 30th acceding annual. The tower, which is 25 mt. high and has 6 floors, was built in 1906. It is a 65*4, 65 mt. planned structure. The entrance is possible with a 4 graded and round coved door. There are 89 graded wooden stairs inside of the towers for climbing up. Square body of the tower is divided with 5 profiled eaves. There is a round caved rectangle window at the each side of the tower. There was a round clock quadrant at each side of the top floor. Today, an electronic clock has been put instead of the original one. The tower is still used as a fire observation tower.
