2 Best Sights in Montenegro

The Main Town Gate (also known as the Sea Gate because of its position on the coast), which accesses the Stari Grad via the western facade of the city walls, dates back to the 16th century and comprises Renaissance and Baroque details. Initially, the outer gate bore a relief of the Venetian Lion, but in Tito's time this was replaced by the socialist star and dates, as well as a direct quote recording the liberation of Kotor on November 21, 1944, at the end of World War II. There are two other entrances to the Stari Grad: the Južna vrata (South Gate) and the Sjeverna vrata (North Gate).

Built in the 17th century and considered a symbol of Kotor, the Clock Tower stands directly opposite the Main City Gate. In front of the Clock Tower, the Pillar of Shame was used to subject local criminals to public humiliation.
