Citadela is a fortress located at the very sea and its walls used to connect it with the upper city. The tower, with the walls, was built during the Venetian rule. The fortress was almost entirely torn down in the 1979 earthquake, and today, it is more in the sea than on the ground. One can see only the remains of the fortress.

The Clock Tower is one of the symbols of Kotor. It occupies the central place in the square opposite the main gate. It was built in 1602 but it is supposed not to have been finished at the time of the 1667 earthquake, as on that occasion the Tower considerably inclined towards the west i.e. to the sea. Later there had been some attempts to put it back in upright position but after the 1979 catastrophic earthquake it returned to the same position. The Clock Tower was partly built in the Baroque style while the northern and eastern façade is in the Gothic style. Below the Clock Tower there is the Pillar of Shame which was used for punishment of an accused person by placing him/her in front of the Pillar so that all the citizens of Kotor would know for his/her offence.
The remains of the medieval city Nehaj raised in the 15th century are situated at a distance of about 10 km northwest of Bar on the hill above the rough sea.
Built by the Venetians to defend ,for the first time mentioned in the 16th century.
There is the church of St.. Dimitri from the 18th century with two altars that are older than the fort.
