Clock

The head of the Municipality of Shkodra, Benet Beci, has announced through a post on social networks that he has found the mechanism of the old clock of the city of Shkodra. 

He says that the over 120-year-old mechanism was found in a palace wall and was preserved thanks to the Kurraj family. Beci emphasized that this mechanism is becoming part of the city museum fund.

"I never thought that we would find the old clock mechanism there in the small tower just above the palace, when I asked a municipal employee to go and verify it. The over 120-year-old clock mechanism was still there, thanks to the Kurraj family and Mrs. Suzana who had preserved it for years. It seemed to me that we discovered a treasure of the city, so I want to publicly express my gratitude and on behalf of Shkodër Municipality for the citizenship shown by this family during all these years. Thanks to Besnik watchmaker The clock, the maintainer Ermir Dibra and the restorer Petrit Bilali, we were able to learn the history of this clock and the values ??it carries, but also to carry out the cleaning and maintenance of its mechanism. With this simple initiative, but convinced that I have the support of the citizens of Shkodra, I am pleased to announce that this mechanism is becoming part of the city Museum fund.At the same time, I want to share with you the good news that we are working on the complete reconstruction of the Shkodra Clock to make it functional in the same place. And finally, I want to invite you to follow this modest report that was produced by the Municipality of Shkodër, as an inalienable proof of the Shkodran spirit, always filled with citizenship and love", he said./ CNA
