White Tower of Thessaloniki
The White Tower of Thessaloniki (, (ギリシア語:Λευκός Πύργος) ''Lefkos Pyrgos'', (トルコ語:Beyaz Kule)), is a monument and museum on the waterfront of the city of Thessaloniki, capital of the region of Macedonia in northern Greece. The present tower replaced an old Byzantine fortification which was mentioned around the 12th century and reconstructed by the Ottomans to fortify the city's harbour; it became a notorious prison and scene of mass executions during the period of Ottoman rule. It was substantially remodeled and its exterior was whitewashed after Greece gained control of the city in 1912. It has been adopted as the symbol of the city.
==Physical attributes==
The White Tower takes the form of a cylindrical drum in diameter with a height of above ground level, on top of which is a turret in diameter and high. Some of the embrasures in the outer wall of the tower are reached by a spiral ramp; others are accessed from a central room on each of the six floors. The turret houses a platform with a diameter of , and the platform at the top of the main tower in front of the turret is about wide...
The tower has been altered substantially over the decades. Early illustrations show that it was originally covered by a conical roof, like similar towers in the Yedikule Fortress and Rumelihisarı fortress in Istanbul. Until its demolition in 1917, a ''chemise'' stood at the foot of the tower, supporting the heavy guns and enclosing an area at least three times the diameter of the main tower. Octagonal turrets on the ''chemise'' and ''caponiers'' at ground level provided flanking fire around the tower. It is unclear whether the ''chemise'' was part of the original scheme for the tower or was a later addition.〔Tracy (2000), p.303–307.〕
