A 14-metre high residential tower from the 17th century, this is the oldest building in central Skopje. Built for defense, with 1.5-metre thick walls, a high door and small windows on the lower floors, the tower would protect the family living here against all attackers. In the tower are the Mother Teresa memorial and the National Museum shop. The square in front of the tower was the location of a small catholic Church, which was destroyed in 1963.
