Construction edit

The tower was built by the Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services of Montenegro during a 3-year period, from 2008 to 2011. The whole project was marred by controversy, mostly regarding the construction costs of cca. 5 million euros.[1] It was officially opened on 15 October 2011.[2]
