Over the centuries the tower underwent some renovations, the first of which in 1531, a second bell was added in 1552 and in 1561 the clock was added. After the various renovations, a guardian of the tower was assigned to play the bells and watch the building. In 1585 a fire broke out that destroyed the tower, but was quickly restored and restarted. Towards the end of 800 the seat of the Municipality\u00a0was moved and the tower lost its importance even if used for other purposes, but the watch continued to mark the hours until the second part of the thirties. Since the 1950s, began to run some sales until 2000 when it was bought by a Carpi family.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-28305 size-medium\" title=\"Clock tower Torri del Benaco lake Garda Italy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/torre-orologio-torri-del-benaco-1-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"Clock tower Torri del Benaco lake Garda Italy\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/torre-orologio-torri-del-benaco-1-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/torre-orologio-torri-del-benaco-1.jpg 264w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clock tower Place of the meetings of the administration of Torri del Benaco Clock tower\u00a0was used by the [...]","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28305,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[188],"tags":[],"comune":[],"localita":[110],"class_list":["post-18553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fortifications-and-villages","localita-torri-del-benaco"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18553","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18553"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18553\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":28308,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18553\/revisions\/28308"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28305"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18553"},{"taxonomy":"comune","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comune?post=18553"},{"taxonomy":"localita","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gardatourism.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/localita?post=18553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
