Kampana Tower

This guide to Kampana Tower in Kotor stands at the town's northern corner, where the walls meet the little Škurda river, and follows one summer day in fifteen thirty-nine when the Ottoman grand admiral Hayreddin Barbarossa steered his fleet toward it. You'll hear who he was, what he had already fought for down the bay, and why the tower carries the name of a bell. Best heard on the riverside, facing the round stone bulk of the tower.
