    Clock Tower

    Built in 1602, during the time of the Venetian Republic, the tower reflects a blend of Renaissance and Baroque styles. Its stone façade leans slightly backward — a result of several earthquakes over the centuries, including the great quake of 1979, after which it was carefully restored.
