The Clock Tower in Elbasan is much more than a building that showed the exact time through the centuries. The place is also a meeting point for young people, tourists and citizens of Elbasan. Almost all Albanian cities, such as Prizren, Berat, Shkodra, Pristina, Peja, Kruja and Elbasan, were equipped with such facilities during the 17th century. The idea was brought by local traders who were in frequent contact with European countries. Traders have also brought the clock mechanism to make the tower a dominant urban element. From there, they also introduced timing mechanisms, for which they built special towers in shopping malls or in places near them to make the tower the dominant element of the city silhouette. Even Evliya Chelebi in her travelogues describes the clock tower as a very beautiful and functional building. Over the years, the infrastructure of the city of Elbasan has changed drastically, but the clock tower has remained a historic monument.

As a construction, it stands out in its entirety and is gracefully connected to the natural surroundings of the mountain riverbed that surrounds it. In the vertical projection, the Kamara Bridge is a bumpy type of bridge over the main arch, which is a common architectural-structural solution to the bridges of this time. It rises over two arcs of circular segments with different spaces. Restoration work was done in 1982 by the Institute of Cultural Monuments in Tirana. A defensive wall was built on the right bank to eliminate corrosion on this side. The level of the parapet from the main arch on the right bank was also raised, and the cobblestones between them were filled with rising gravel to avoid flooding of the right support, making it difficult for passers-by. Today the bridge connects the Polis province with the national highway.
