| Description |
The Yaffo Clock tower was erected to commemorate the reign of the Ottoman Sultan Abd al Hamid II. The tower was built with contributions of the residents of the city. The tower was completed by 1906. It is one of seven similar towers built in the Holy Land during the Ottoman occupation. According legend, the tower was built by Yossef Moial, a wealthy Jew of Jaffa, who erected the clock tower because he was pestered by people coming into his shop to ask the time. |
