From Macedonia to Serbia, to Nis, there is an awe-inspiring tower. In 1809, 40,000 Turkish troops and Serbias 16,000 insurgents made a decisive battle on the outskirts of Nis. The war was faint and dark, and the battle was extremely fierce. Due to the disparity in strength, the insurgents finally failed in the decisive battle. The violent Turkish army leader ordered the head of the Serbian insurgents to be cut down and the cotton was plucked into the stripped scalp. In, then sent back to Turkey to invite merits. The part of the skull that was stripped of the scalp was built into a tower made of sand and lime, which is today's "tower."
