Lotrščak Tower is a medieval stone tower that once guarded the southern gate of Gradec. Today, it is famous for the Grič Cannon, which fires a blank shot every day at noon, a tradition dating back to the 19th century. Visitors can climb the tower for sweeping views of Zagreb's rooftops and the surrounding region. Inside, small exhibitions often highlight the tower's history and the cannon tradition.
