Map / Strážna veža v Rožňave

Dominantou historického centra mesta je neskororenesančná strážna veža, ktorá dnes poskytuje návštevníkom nádherné kruhové výhľady na mesto i planiny Slovenského krasu.

Viackrát upravovaná 36,5 m vysoká veža plnila v minulosti dôležitú strážnu i obrannú funkciu. Postavili ju v období, keď krajinu ohrozovali Turci. O tom, že zažila i skutočne krušné chvíle, svedčí turecká delová guľa, ktorú možno dodnes vidieť v jej južnej fasáde. V blízkosti delovej gule sa nachádza renesančná kamenná tabuľa z doby postavenia veže s dobovou podobou erbu mesta. K historickým zaujímavostiam veže patrí i fakt, že mala (ako bolo široko-ďaleko známe) najpresnejšie hodiny v celom Uhorsku. 

Dnes majú z jej pavlače návštevníci krásny výhľad na všetky pamiatky historického jadra mesta Rožňava, na obnovenú kalváriu, Rožňavskú kotlinu i planiny Slovenského krasu. Aj vďaka tejto atrakcii má Rožňava svoj slogan:  MESTO S VÝHĽADOM.
