Torre dell’orologio
The clock tower, 25 meters high and made with limestone ashlars, dates back to 1604. In the mid-nineteenth century the two bells placed on the top of the tower are added, still in operation. Below, the epigraph dedicated to Gordian III, testimony of the centrality of Ruvo in Roman times.
