Dating from 1894, albeit on the site of a far older medieval structure, the tower's distinctive look comes from 1941 when a double storey was added from the remnants of a demolished Orthodox church. The attached Catholic church was briefly one of Bosnia's biggest but only for three years – that was hit by WWII allied bombing during 1944 and destroyed.
The structure looks sturdy but is closed by metal-slat gates fastened with a rusty bolt and guarded by a (less than aggressive) dog.
