The Lotrščak tower (Kula Lotrščak) is located at the top of the funicular of Zagreb. It has been built to protect a nearby city gate. In the evenings a bell within the tower annouced the closing of the city gates. Today you can get on top of the tower and enjoy a nice panorama of the city.
Instead of ringing a bell in the evening hours nowadays a cannon is fired at noon. Whether you know about this or not: it still makes most people flinch, even 20 years after the end of the Yugoslav wars.
