It was the year 1174 when the powerful Bissari family decided to build their own tower next to the family palace. A few years later, in 1226, the tower and the palace were purchased by the Municipality of Vicenza and became public property. In the 14th century, the city’s first mechanical clock was installed on the tower, whose dial was changed many times over the centuries.
